Well I guess summer is here in Bulgaria, although weather not as hot as some years and it is very stormy. Still good for the veggie garden (and unfortunately the weeds!). We have now been back around 3 weeks and are just about on top of the gardens.

We have been to our new apartment on the coast and it is fab! Few quirky bits and pieces as you expect in Bulgaria - such as wires for the TV right in the centre of the room, door handles only on one side of door..……but all in all very good quality. If anyone is interested in an apartment on a great complex I know of a couple for sale at good prices.

Now the main reason for this update is that as you may recall in my last email, we were looking for a caravan in exchange for an old house we have here. Well we have not managed to arrange a swap, but we have found a caravan we really like. Therefore in order to raise the funds required, I am willing to sell off the urn-renovated place VERY CHEAP. It is already very good value at offers around 4000 Euros, similar here in this area, for this condition will cost around 6000 to 7000 Euros. However, we really want this caravan and so basically I am opening it to all on this mailing list, as a number of people on here have expressed interest in this house in the past, and the person who makes me the best offer [over 3000 Euros] and then sends me a 20% deposit within 3 days (UK sterling or Bulgarian Euro account) and rest of the money within 4 weeks will win the house. Legal fees and taxes on transfer to be paid by buyer and will be around 300 to 400 Euros plus company set up. Any
buyer is welcome to come over and stay with us or in our guest annex for free for a few days to complete the deal any time over the summer.

Please note I reserve the right to accept higher offers from other advertising I will be doing in the next couple of days.
