Hi all, Stu here.
I thought I should let you know as soon as I found out! Some new footage of the Haskovo power plant demolition has been unearthed! You’ve just got to see it:
I just can’t work out why Elly was so amused?
Enjoy?
Cheers,
Stu.
ps. prize for the first person to spot the (small) continuity error in the movie…
pps. We’re going to London (via Sofia) today! So if you don’t hear from us immediately, it’s because we’re not taking the laptop… or a working mobile phone… but we’ll be sure to post more amazing videos and other adventures soon.

Snow that is.
I have to say I’m quite disappointed by my disappointment in snow. I think it comes from the fact that I imagined snow everywhere to be magical and romantic, but didn’t consider that life goes on even when snow is thick on the ground. And I’m tired of trying to get on with life with snow about! If we were forced to stay inside and admire it, then I would probably not be disgruntled by this week’s snowfall.
Someone who is beside himself with today’s snowfall is Stu. It’s his birthday today (or yesterday, depending on your longitude) and it’s forecast to snow all week! He has gone to bed hoping that it snows overnight so there’ll be ‘a gazillion’ cm of snow to wake up to.
He took a video of it falling today:
(Extra special mention needs to be made about capturing the ‘mawp mawp’ of the police car/truck/something bossy)
Happy Birthday Stu!
March 9 also signifies 1 month until we touch down in Tassie. Time is going by fast, we better savour our time here while there’s some left!
