I managed to buy a pocket Oxford dictionary (Spanish/English), and a "Rough Guide" phrase book here in Bulgaria,but can anyone recommend a language course (Self-study ?),and a larger dictionary to buy after i arrive,or are they all much of a muchness ?

The "Gran Dicionario Ingles" by Oxford is excellent: a doorstep of a thing whose best feature is a cd-rom containing all of the content of the book meaning you only have to type in the first few letters and the word will come up or you can double-click to highlight a word in a text or on a web page and it will translate it automatically. It�s not that cheap, around fifty euros, but worth every penny in my opinion (it even has wierd S. American slang words, footballing terms etc.)
