Just to let all Mindya folk know that I will shortly be closing my account with Mybulgaria. I feel my time on the forum has come to an end. I feel outdated and outmoded since there are few people in their 70s on the site who will look at village life through the same eyes as myself. Back to the priv...

Neither do I MW especially in Mindya where we have little crime except for some wood or cement. Desperate people, desperate times. I feel very safe in our village but the day we have vigilantes walking our streets will be the day I might think of leaving Bulgaria. Security is personal choice and per...

At choir rehearsel I was told that this year's International Day will be held on May 17th. Any Brits living in Mindya or those with holidayhomes, are of course invited to attend with a suitable British dish. Book your holidays now if you are interested. I hope I stay well this year. There will also ...

Wow, good luck to you both. Known you for years on this forum but don't post much nowadays so missed the news. Have not regretted a minute of our life in Bulgaria. Probably see you sometime Tezmog. Remember us???? Enjoy your new life.

I have posted the story in general discussion 'A Wonderful Life' for anyone interested in village life. Many villages have choirs an...

Info for anyone in the VT area the lessons will be held at the Camp site in Dragizhevo. They have a website.

Personally, having read all this Nurseracer, I wouldn't bother bringing it unless someone more knowledgeable can help with info. Problem seems to be the total tightening up of all gas bottles. I guess its for safety reasons and if you saw the damage done by exploding gas bottles in a shop in VT rece...

Nothing being planted so far. Planned to rotovate this weekend and guess what? - the rain came again. Thinking of keeping it to lawn, the weeds look quite pretty.

Recently I have been reassured that life is still wonderful in my village of Mindya. After a rather long winter, mostly due to the late start, the sighting of our village storks sitting atop their nests and seeing all the spring flowers popping up their heads in the sunshine really gladens the heart...

What a shame Veliko Turnovo isn't on the schedule. I would love to see them.
