Still, can't wait to see it full and with some plants growing (preferably in pots, as you'll have to bring them inside for the winter and also to protect them from the ducks).Боби Димитровhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830937435454061522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978038016196498431.post-92176414742406271692015-09-19T07:38:10.573+03:002015-09-19T07:38:10.573+03:00It isn't quite 1m deep, no.

How deep is it? I hope at least a meter down, so the water will be deep enough for some year-round fish.

It really is a beautiful country but the best part is the people. If you have managed to pick up any of the language yet then get out and use it... If not the spend the next three days learning a few words... Enjoy yourself and as I say, good luckBradato Kopelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18340349291616597363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978038016196498431.post-37861838354793792542015-09-15T22:29:12.877+03:002015-09-15T22:29:12.877+03:00The balcony is looking good - a real focal point ...The balcony is looking good - a real focal point in the final home. I'm flying out to Bulgaria for the first time at the weekend with a view to seeing if the country is for me. Do you have any advice?
