Pete’s Bansko Blog
A group of us have just returned from a ski holiday in the super snowy ski resort of Bansko in Bulgaria, and I just wanted to express what a grand week we had. Having always skied in Italy, we were reluctant to book Bulgaria as we presumed it’d be too basic. However, as money was […]
Read moreOur UEFA Cup Adventures – Trip 1: Villarreal
Middlesbrough FC in the UEFA cup?! We could hardly believe it, yet here we were. Since winning the Carling cup in the February of 2004 we had been in dreamland. However, we’d been thrown in at the deep end in the group stage after knocking Banik Ostrava of the Czech Republic out in the first [&hel
Read moreOur UEFA Cup Adventures – Trip 2: Stuttgart
After the Boro disappointingly bowed out of the 2004/5 UEFA cup after reaching the final 16, we were hoping our refined league form would propel us back into next season’s competition. As key players returned towards the end of the season, our game was fairly consistent and a place in the top 7, w
Read moreCheap Holiday Outside Of The Eurozone
The main reason my husband and I chose to holiday in Sunny Beach last August to save money. Bulgaria still uses levs as its currency, rather than the expensive Euro, so our funds would go further. We stayed in a lovely little apartment not far from the beach that had a lovely pool. The beach [&helli

Read moreStaying At The Levante Lux Apartments In Benidorm…
After grabbing a fantastic last minute bargain on the Holiday Hypermarket website, we were whisked off to the Levante Lux apartments in Benidorm for a week of sun, sea and sand. Despite many people saying Benidorm is a rough and scruffy place to go, we can honestly say that we had one of the best h

I was desperate to go away on holiday but my husband, Nicolas, was worrying about funds and didn’t want to spend much. I had my heart set on a little family break though, so set about scouring the internet for that perfect bargain bargain. We really didn’t mind where we went as long as there [&h

We went to Portugal in November for the first time. We nabbed a last minute deal to the Club Praia de Rocha in the Algarve and thoroughly enjoyed it. Because it was so cheap, just £231 for a week, we weren’t sure what to expect. The room had a balcony with a sea view. It […]
