Whats new in Boro

Not a great deal actually, between the Royal Plaza and Iglika Hotel there used to be some small chalets, theyre now gone and its going to be more apartments, works well under way, at least it will tidy that area up when its finished. What used to be 'Peters Bar' on the corner opposite the Gondola entrance has now had a make over and is now called "revolution' that will be a busy place, situated on the corner. There is a new 'Greek' hotel called Ahilles, i think it means Achilles!!! anyway ...

There is a new 'Greek' hotel called Ahilles, i think it means Achilles!!! anyway they have a new restaurant, and its a Greek Taverna specialising in fish dishes, this is opposite the 'Happy Duck'
On the runs side the new resevoir for the snow cannons (fingers crossed if weather stays ok they will be ready this year) makes skiing from Yastrebets 3 to the Yastrebets chair lift a bit interesting!!!! maybe it will freeze over Razz pictures will appear on 'the other side' the chair lift at the top on Marky 2 is ready and so are the snow cannon bases on 1,2 and 3. Theres also been a selection of widening and gradient levelling between Makry 1 and 2 down the road.
The webcams from the chalet will be working after this weekend on the other side, and have been revamped, so more continual video than stills, also a new camera is coming watch this space, or rather the space on the other side!! by the way yesterday the temp was 21c in samokov, oh also forget, the new ice rink is in obviously just waiting for the temps to drop a bit

Just logged on before going to work, night shift para. Sounds very positive from your end just hoping global warming does'nt effect the ski season.

from the latest take on global warming, and im no authority on this, just talking to someone who is, global warming is melting the ice cap, colder water is coming south the gulf stream is getting pushed south and so we are actually going to get colder and more variable weather here, in the uk, this will also affect europe, so it might actually be the other way, but the truth is no one knows so lets get skiing whilst we can Booze Booze

So what you're saying is - it might get colder, but then again, it might get warmer, but then again, no-one really knows.

Liked the bit about getting skiing though.

re: Whats new in Boro

So nothing really new in Boro as you know.Good try to make some water out of a stone with ski news from Boro.
The reality is that the reservoir is not going to be completed ,THE GONDOLA which you many times defended is pile of s""" and it wont go further and few CM of widening here and there is just plane nothing.
The rest is again some ADVERTS about useless site with a hope of generating some income .This site is getting extremely-boring dont you think and far from the truth
