off piste is pretty special and some good new (non mehana) restaurants and bars coming along. Hope they make some money as we could do with a few more.

hi Mat. how does the off piste in Borovets compare to Bansko? I'm not an off pister myself so don't know but last week I picked up a snow board instructer on the road from Samokov and she said the off piste in Borovets was better if you are an experience boarder. She had spent 3 years instructing in Bansko and this was her first year in Borovets and reckoned it was alot more "extreme". her words not mine as my skiing is far from extreme.

I have been to Pamporovo three times and I have thoroughly enjoyed each visit. Skiing conditions were superb this year. I am probaly only at inter-mediate level in terms of skiing ability and still finding the slopes incrediably challenging (only done two blacks!) but a number of people in my party are much more experienced and said they would like a new challenge, however we are all a bit heistant about trying a new resort (its just our nature i suppose!).

We would not mind returning to Bulgaria again, just not pamps. Below i have given my scores on pamps this year i would appreciate it if you could give me your scores on bansko and borovets just to see how they compare. Thanks.

Skiing(quailty and size of slopes etc.) 8/10
Nightlife-- 8/10 (Titanic Blue all good prices.
Prices-- 9/10 (about £1.50 for a pint in the resort)
Choice of restuarants in resort --10/10 Loads of restaurants Frankies Blue titanic Mamma Mia all brill
Food on the mountain-- expensive dont go to Bonkers crap dont eat at the top if you can avoid it exxy.
Borovets good we are intermediate skiers there are a lot of challenges to come. Good Luck
Very Happy Booze Booze Booze Booze
