It would seem that they now have a nice topic going about all the nasty things that us Brits may or may not have done to Bulgaria in the past. Oh my god these folks have lost it.

It would seem that they now have a nice topic going about all the nasty things that us Brits may or may not have done to Bulgaria in the past. Oh my god these folks have lost it. This is a site to promote and chat about the pros and cons of Bulgaria NOT A POLITICAL statement. Yes I accept that people may not like the place and have the right to say so, but they have just lost it on the dark side.

Let us hope that us skiers and boarders can rise above such childish tosh and keep this board the fun and informative place that it is.

For anyone who may lurk and are not sure to post or not please feel free to join us as long as you dont mind some gentle mickey taking you will fit in!

re: The Dark side

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the encouragement, I have been reading the posts for quite a while as I have bought a house near Borovets. I have also seen some of the stuff written on the other site and am amazed at peoples ignorance. I have been to Bg a few times now and although it is a bit different the people that I have met have been grand.

I posted a question a while ago about recommendations for New Years eve in Borovets, anyone got any good stories.

Hello
Not posted very often on here before, however, I always read it during my lunch hour as the banter between the regulars is amusing. Just read some of the pointless comments on the 'Dark Side'. Doesn't have the same effect!
Went to Borovets last year, had a great time (first time skiing), the help on this board contributed a long way towards my enjoyment (even though I did post something and had my leg very gently pulled!!) Feel sorry for Pamps Pete (or Sunny Beach Pete), he does a ...

Feel sorry for Pamps Pete (or Sunny Beach Pete), he does a great job, stick to this board, as it hasn't been taken over by morons (well Daniel Snell apart!) keep up the 'mickey taking' and helping more people discover the delights of Bulgaria.
Regards
Neil Very Happy

re: The Dark side

Having just got back from a week in Elenite, I would now like to have the word British removed from my passport because I am so embarassed by my fellow country men and their ignorant behaviour. We go on about the Americans lacking wordly knowledge and Germans being arrogant, but we hold the prize for being the most loutish and complaining. No wonder the Ossies call us whingers!

That aside, we loved Bulgaria and Bulgarians and have booked to go ski-ing in Pamps next year after reading ...

That aside, we loved Bulgaria and Bulgarians and have booked to go ski-ing in Pamps next year after reading loads of the helpful comments on this site Smile booked with Balkan Airways, so looking forward to a flight on a Tupolev Razz Honest! Just as long as its not full of people wearing shell suits like the flight to Bourgas Crying

re: The Dark side

Daniel I think you're a moron.

You are 'more on' here than you are at work Razz

It's strange to watch the summer board now, since I decided to let the berks run wild on it, hardly anyone has submitted a posting, and those that have are just continuing to moan and groan and grizzle and grunt. Sad

Have no fear guys, this board will continue to thrive with fun and information for all who want to participate, as long as they behave Very Happy
