We can but hope. At least the UK is doing quite well on all counts. 77% double jabbed and 90% single jabbed. Daily cases dropping and few hospital admissions. And that's after many restrictions were...

Can't you buy Sumatriptan over the counter in Luxor Doc? My NO. 1 son gets them occasionally and always has a Sumatriptan spray to hand (on prescription here, of course!). It works champion, he says.

At the end of summer 2020 we were informed of the new transmission of Covid 19. The situation was at that time, even though it was expected that a vaccine would be found, there would be what was...

For a while, the Venus was the top recommended hotel on Trip Advisor! It's still a dump, though.
I see the UK government has just placed Egypt in the red zone category concerning travel, more bad news, so I can only assume that Egypt didn't have the virus was false news then.

Have a great time Newcastle. Keep us posted and above all keep safe. Lets hope by the time you're ready to come back Egypt will be back on the amber list at least!
Thank you.
At the very start of this Covid thing early last year, I suggested on here that we should all wear a face mask, and gloves of the soft garden variety that can be washed out each day. Although few...

Of course there’s no obstacle to foreigners coming to U.K. ....although those from India and elsewhere face an enforced quarantine at government hotels, at their own expense.
Donations are to be requested from the public to help pay for a new memorial in St. Paul's Cathedral, London to honour those who have died from Corona Virus.
Would you be prepared to contribute?

When I give to any charity, I pay for some kind of work to be carried on for improvement in life for either humans or animals, not something to look at.
Not sure I'm that desperate to get to Egypt, but I guess there are those who are.

I’m not sure it’s a British legal requirement to have a fit- to- fly certificate in order to travel to Egypt. He was going to Cairo where the Egyptians require a negative PCR test. If he was going to...
