Uk tv channels by johnnymalta
Is is possible to get the UK tv channels in Hurgharda via the dish on the roof of all these flats being built. Hope so and does it come with a cost or a problem.

Public Beaches by johnnymalta
Is the public beach opposite the Al Ahyaa area ie The Tibas really public and can anyone use it. A lot of people say you cannot, does any body have any pictures of it.

Racism by Kamaa
It's sad to know that racism is here in Egypt,when one is of african origin walking in the streets in Cairo just out of nowhere you hear somebody calling you samara,shikaballah,kawarshy and zoul it's really irritating to hear this cause it's kind of ...

Hi John, I see that this one slipped through the net! In all honesty, most Europeans would not use and Egyptian public beach. They are generally not well kept, have poor or non existent sun loungers and facilities. Most people pay anything from 5le ... Read More

Two Swiss Tourists murdered in Hurghada by ExpEgypt
Two Swiss tourists have been found murdered in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Hurghada, Switzerland's ATS news agency reported Friday. No immediate details of the crime were available from Swiss authorities, but ATS cited the foreign ministry ...
