    Holiday to Egypt

    So I was looking at holidays to Egypt (hurghada) and was able to pick up an all inclusive, 5 star hotel, large family room in a waterpark, with flights for 1 grand for a family of four


    So it seems there are great deals, if you're sure that someone may not cut off your head.


    Anyone been and who thinks it's safe?

      I saw there had been a stabbing in Jan, but then again, London, Paris and Brussels have all been hit with major attacks as well over the years, plus there is probably a stabbing a day (or more) in London, so it's all relative surely?

        Should be nice and quiet, bit like Jaywick Sands: Sharm el-Sheikh tourism collapse hits resort – in pictures | World news | The Guardian
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          Aren't the interesting bits all in the British museum anyway? WTF would you tempt fate by actually visiting the tuliphole?

                  I went a few days after the shootings in Luxor in 97, and I and my work colleague were one of the only people at the Pyramids, got to climb it which you couldn't normally do, place was swarming with police, safest I've ever been.

                    What was your heart rate by the time you reached the top? Any damage done to the pyramids?

                    I see why they banned people from climbing them
