When I worked on the telephone team in Customer Services for a UK tour operator and got asked why it was longer coming back, I used to tell them "because it's uphill on the way back". You won't believe how many holidaymakers used to reply "oh, okay"
Now, when I fly from Cyprus to Malta - it's always quicker returning to home to Cyprus!
Shell
Limassol, Cyprus
Hubby picked up our money earlier in the wek, and I've just got round to llooking at it. I can't believe how dirty it is
You wont need much Helen . You should of just taken sterling and changed it up there . better rate . You havnt been reading that currency topic have you.
do need to read up..
Helen..there is a reason why the money is very dirty.....perhaps you should read up........also, many people catch nasty things through handling the money....you really
Have you packed the Imodium instants Helen . Take plenty . Most important .
I managed to holiday in Egypt without ever even seeing any Egyptian currency.We were aI and I just used sterling for tips etc; Immodium is the best advice you will be given. I only needed them one day but they were worth their weight in gold!
Right - you're beginning to frighten me with all this talk of immodium. I hope we're not going to have a week of "the trots"
. Always best to be prepared with those and the rehydration sachets
Prevention is better than cure and I took just one a day each time I have been to Egypt.
Helen, seriously take some immodium with you. I would normally say a bug is better out than in but you can't ruin your holiday stuck in your room. Read one of Lyn' posts regarding a lady that was running to her room with something running down her legs!
Poor Helen . She'll be having nightmares tonight about opening her case in Egypt and it being full of packets of immodium instead of clothes
and take the hand sanitiser spray you can get, it will sit nice in your luggage next to the immodium. I have had the pharoah's before in Egypt and it really is not nice (lat time round was the first time ever I have been ill on hols..but I didnt know if I was ill ill or ill due to my medical predicament at the time before I got the all clear..but half the boat had it...so......)
Just thought that filthy Egyptian notes were because it was a poor Country they couldn't afford such niceties as brand new notes all the time. Am I way off beam ?
Doe
way off....
I just saw your name on the front page and was dreading clicking on it in case I found something I didnt like
Please dont tell me they wipe their backsides with it over there .
Think i accidently put some LE through the wash and it kind of disintegrated
Val - spill the beans please. My God - it looks like I should have saved up a bit more in order to pay for all this dam medication
well they dont exactly wipe thier bums with it....but it is a good hiding place if you get my drift.
Oh my word
