Anyone been to Egypt since...

[Buckley]

....the bombings?

Better to avoid Sharm El Sheik or not?

 

[djchewie]

u thinkin of goin?

Probably not the safest place to be at the moment, but then again neither is London!

 

[Buckley]

u thinkin of goin?

This weekend for a week.

£189 each for 3* in Sharm El Sheik (presumably because of aforementioned bombings)

or

£400 each for luxury place further around the coast

Anna's always wanted to go and it's her birthday on Friday....

 

[djchewie]

sounds like good deals

do the luxury one.

if u both feel 100% comfy, and can relax, go.

Aaaaw you romantic thing you

Someone from works gone to that place you mention for two weeks, she was really worried about going too but i think all is okay.

are you using public transport in London?
My guess is that you are? Then I would go, would be a tad nervous admittedly, but I would go. If your numbers up....then it's up!!

I was looking at going there a few years ago, and one of the reasons that its cheaper at this time of year is because its really, really hot- about 40 oC during the day.

Ouch . . .

So I withstood the spanish inquisition from Anna all weekend and you're changing your plans??

Dunno - I don't think it's a decision I can make alone so I've had to spoil the surprise and ask her. Here's the foriegn office view:

I guess you have to weigh up what the atmosphere will be like, as well as the actual danger..

To be honest, that and the fact that my strongly heald belief that all organised religion is, well, a bit silly means that I actually would prefer to spend the money on another trip to Ibiza than somewhere Anna will be required to cover herself 'respectfully' but it's her birthday/her dream destination.

 

[djchewie]

then take her then!

Looking like Anna's decided it would be safer to wait on Egypt........

 

[djchewie]

[Buckley]
