A Plumbing Warehouse On The Outskirts Of Yambol

This is a relatively new plumbing warehouse that opened up about two years ago on the outskirts of Yambol. I often see British registration cars parked outside there as many make a beeline for this place for their plumbing resources with their renovations. It's a bit pricey, therea re cheaper places in Yambol, but for convenience it does the job. They also sell boilers from the factory Galia works in.

A Yambol Urban Shepherd

Even in the City of Yambol pastoral thing go on such as farming and herding sheep and goat. This urban shepherd is at work all day with local livestock, which graze on the banks of the Tundzha River. Each morning and evening they are guided to and from their homes for free food on public land, usually during rush hour. (There never used to be a rush hour in Yambol, but now there is.

Yambol's Wood Stocks Supplier

On the outskirt of Yambol just across the Tundzha River southwards you will find olne of the wood stock suppliers where hundreds of Bulgarian buy their winter fuel for their wood-burners. It is cut and sold in 1 cubic metre loads with a delivery service to hand. It is more expensive than the local village wood bought through the local mayor, which is what I do to save on transportation and costs. Current prices here are around 50 leva per cubic metre it goes up every year much to the discontentment of Bulgarians. By the way, security dogs guard the area and it is dangerous to walk around there out of working hours.

A Yambol DIY Garden

Another example of Bulgarians just taking out paving stones to create a little gardens. This is a common sight in Yambol and can involved growing vegetables as well as flowers. Again, everyone respects the creativeness and no one complains.

Bulgarian Workers Rolling In Yambol's Yazaki

As I dropped Galia’s son off to work on this sunny day, he was joined by other workers who are employed at Yazaki on the outskirts of Yambol. They have 3500 employed there on a three-shift rota. So at any point there are well over 1000 workers making electronic components for Renault cars.
