Gaffy,

Did you see my reply to your questions/concerns regarding ski-ing in Bulgaria?

re: boro exchange rate

2.54 is not good good, shop around you should get better some of the hotels out there are pretty good you should get between 2.7 - 2.8

I got 2.65 or 2.70 last week in Hotel Bor in Borovets. No commission charged and very convenient to change what you want when you need it.

re: boro exchange rate

I was there before Christmas and the rate was about 1.70 in the Rila, but our rep recommended Exchange+, we got 1.80 there, no commision.

Hi Kel
Just noted the rate i got on my credit card, 2.7570 13/12/04 in Bansko. Payment
for hotel though i think you do pay a commission if you draw cash...2.5%
Definately feel if you take sterling (10`s and 20`s) you will get a better rate out there. Pamporovo Pete seems to be the one in the know...

Cheers
