Power Cuts

Just had an hour and a half power cut.This is not unusual especially in the summer when they do maintenance.Unfortunately Bulgaria's national grid is creaking, the demands on it especially in the tourist season, and in winter for heating means it occasionally cannot cope.In the UK when a power station goes off-line other stations provide the power not here.Similarly during thunderstorms they switch the power off which is to stop your electrical goods get fried.

Saturday Morning Update


Good Morning Readers,

Just a couple of bits and pieces to keep you up to date how the blog is progressing.A few days ago we passed through the 1000 unique UK visitors threshold and yesterday we had 178 page views, which is a record for the blog. In total over 6000 individuals have visited Uncle Bulgaria's site so far.There has not been a day in the past week when less than 100 pages were being read.

I have posted alot of articles recently referring people to other sites, without writing any comments myself. I shall be rectifying this over the weekend, so keep an eye out for additional text on recent posts.

Again thanks for all the support and, as usual, any feedback is greatly appreciated.
