The Gamble.

We're booked for Pamporovo Dec.23. Should we book our lift, hire, lessons etc. (at a cost of £257 at Flight Ctr for 2 people) now, or alternatively wait till we arrive at our destination? PS: We arrive late on the 23rd.

Twice the price in resort - book it all before you go with your travel agent.

Cheers Pete. Your mighty fast on the keys. Forgot to take you up on the offer of the free beer. I'll buy you the next one, R.

I'll be in Pamporovo on the 23rd - so I'll expect to see one waiting for me in BJ's. Booze

re: The Gamble.

I thought the gamble might be whether you risk any more money with all the weather forecasts saying limited snow...?

How will I recognise you? Does your head really look like a smiley?

G'day James, I'd rather gamble £257 than £514. There is going to be snow. Lots of it. I've arranged for it to be delivered on the 19th. Make sure your wearing goggles. R.

re: The Gamble.

book everything(lift pass,hire lessons ) and sit in the bar all day drinking with your ski gear and class mates watching ski videos.For 23rd I would wait and buy as I go whatever available(drinks,skis,lessons)

re: The Gamble.

Now I'm confused. So in your mind it would be a waste of money purchasing a package prior to leaving? I've been told it would be double the cost on the mountain. Is this correct?
