Fresh from an extended weekend in the village watering melons and tending to potatoes and sweet corn, Kamila is back in the office kitchen now tending to her blog. She has made a great realisation this morning when surfing through some blogs. She found that she had been mentioned in a friends blog: cornymans-blogreviews.blogspot.com. This was such a pleasant surprise with the nice things that Cornyman had said. He has given SEO advice to Kamila before now so he is very well versed in SEO matt... Read Full Story

As expected the GERB party led by Boyko Borisov seem to have had a good result in yesterday’s Bulgarian election. I suppose technically it could be called a landslide victory as looks like they had exceeded forecast of around 25% and is more likely to be over 40%. One thing is for sure, there will be a strong leader as Boyko, the former bodyguard, makes things happen. Whether they good or bad things still remains in the balance.Mayor Boyko Borisov of Sofia, a burly former black-belt bodyguard... Read Full Story

Well the topic has to be the electon that took place today. Galia has just finished her day as an official making sure all votes are made legally, but that is impossible. Many Bulgarians will make a little money out of today's election. Most are so disaffected with the corriuption, lies and lack of trust of any politician that they really couldn't give a damn who wins. So they vote for a little fee. This is hard to detect as it is part of the condition to keep quiet about it. I find this quit... Read Full Story

On Election Day today in Bulgaria the import of voters from Turkey have been blocked. The votes and result of the election is a foregone conclusion in any case and this is a tactic from oppositions to detract from the impending result. This election is a farce in any case as there is no real political party that can solve Bulgaria’s problems other than promises that will be broken. This is the way of Europe and a ‘democratic’ society where promises come to nothing.Members of Bulgaria's opposi... Read Full Story

Yet another coach crash in Bulgaria, this time killing seven people. Somehow this wasn’t big news in Bulgaria even though is happened here. This is most likely due to no Bulgarians being involved in the fatalities or injured. All the dead were Turkish! I will say no more.Bulgarian police say a passenger bus and a minibus slammed into one another on a main highway in southern Bulgaria, killing seven and injuring two others.The head-on collision occurred Saturday morning near the city of Lyubim...

Just reading about this prolonged travesty of justice, (in terms of the attitude of the git and the light sentence the twat got) makes my blood boil. That scum is making a mockery of true justice in terms of what he left behind in Bulagria. The whole saga of this case disgusts me and was one of the reasons I abandon the UK, because of the scum like Michael Shields. He should have served his justified sentence in Bulgaria and a line drawn under it. But no, these types of Brits think they are i... Read Full Story

There were plans a few years a go to build a Formula One circuit in the Bulgarian southeastern town of Sliven. I presume this is still the venue that is in mind. Bulgaria successfully holds motorcycle events here on a yearly basis and to move up a gear into Formula One would be a great step. I just hope that it ends up as all talk and no action. Bernie Ecclestone usually gets what he wants though.Bernie Ecclestone will meet with a delegation from Bulgaria next weekend in view of adding the na... Read Full Story

One of my favourite places in the village farmhouse is my outside toilet. I’ve done a few articles on the use of this facility and the advantages of outside toilets over using the inside toilet. I have a major soft spot for my outdoor roofed hole in the ground.Last month there were a few earthquakes and disaster for my outside toilet. A massive crack opened up on one of the walls. This was looked at and presented no problem at the time, but as each week went by it got worse, no time or money ... Read Full Story

It getting to be that Bulgaria’s legend Hristov Stoichkov is becoming more useful as a golfing caddy than a football manager. For the simple reason that the amount of clubs he has managed is becoming legend as well. It was only a couple of months ago he was managing in Iran. He’s only 43 yet has yet to become successful in the capacity as manager, Part of the problem I feel is that he just isn’t allowed to spend much time at each club he manages. He has a fighting chance her though as the clu... Read Full Story

There is not just more HP deals on credit in Bulgaria but another HP is now firmly in placed in Bulgaria. Hewlett Packard the major computer company have nested in Bulgaria in their biggest ever training base in Southeast Europe.

This is because of the lowest prices in Europe for business property and cost of a Bulgarian workforce. The computer of course was invented by John Atanasoff... Read Full Story
