Oh I see, my 2nd March roll call thread not good enough for you then Wink

11 of us (kids through to grandads) out on Saturday as well - Gatwick 6:10 cheesy flight.

Sunday is a public holiday so the slopes will be rammed I expect.

Weather looks great for sun but I personally would like to see a bit more snow early in the week just to freshen the pistes.

Bobby's Bar is a must as Kas and Bobby work so hard to make everyones' time really enjoyable. Other's have recommended Sunny's and ...

Bobby's Bar is a must as Kas and Bobby work so hard to make everyones' time really enjoyable. Other's have recommended Sunny's and I expect we shall give it a go at some point. White Magic is good as well.

Wednesday night (I believe) is the ski show and the restaurant at the bottom of the hill where the jump is always a good place to go and see it from. I think it's called White Horse.

The White House at the top of the gondola was good last year but has changed hands so not sure what it will be like this year. Regardless, the Stone Hut by the gondola top station is a good place to go. Good food and a great view, if slightly on the pricey (by bulgarian standards) side.

Skidooing is good. Ask to go to Georges Place as that's a great run out and you get to stop and have a brandy hot chocolate. My wife and girls do horse riding but I am allergic to the damn things (unless in a burger!) so don't go.

Sorry Jez, was having trouble setting up an account and logging in....and by the time I did I'd forgot your post was already on there Sad

We're on the Ryanair flight from Stansted, hoping to get to the resort mid afternoon.

Bobbys and Sunnys seem to be the places that keep cropping up so will definitely give them a try. Sure we'll get round the others that you mention too!

Boarding in the sun is nice but would definitely prefer some snow too...keeping fingers crossed for some early ...

Boarding in the sun is nice but would definitely prefer some snow too...keeping fingers crossed for some early next week (ever the optimist!) just to top things up!

Was hoping they still had skidoos there so will definitely give that a go!
