Thank you those of you who have given me your POSITIVE opinions and feedback, and Medot there was no offence caused by the Mrs Merton comment, I was laughing with my colleagues that I'd started a bit of an arguement on here!! :P

Those of you who are going away soon, have a lovely holiday, and thanks for your help.

Hi Briar

From reading this forum i kind of gathered Sharm is a bit more relaxed and it ws 9 years ago i was in Luxor so most likely will have changed a bit since then. I take it at night we can wear our little strapless dresses then?
and weeish tops and things are these acceptable in Sharm?i im beyond the age of wearing a belt for a skirt but i do like to dress up and show off the tan at night as im sure we all do.

Ps Linzi when are you going in July and where are you staying?

Djanej, I'm going on 7th July for 2 weeks, I'm staying at a hotel called Viva Sharm which is in Nabq bay or Sharks bay (didnt have to much to do with the booking of it), which I gather is a fairly new hotel as there arent many comments made about it or reviews.

To be honest when it comes to a holiday, I just need to be somewhere hot, interesting and somewhere that I can totally forget about work for 2 weeks.

Not at all no offence taken!

Well my friends were all chuffed that it wasnt allowed as they dont think theyve got enough up top so they didnt want to get them out!

I'm not particularly big, but if i tan and then have white boobs they look like a set of scary eyes!!!!! :omg

Well I may see you around there, just listen out for all the commotion and a half naked brunette being dragged off by the armed forces!

Thanks Briar,

So where exactly is it then???

Apologies for my toal ignorance but my desperation for two weeks in the sun was a little more important to me then actually asking where I would be going on holiday! (could have been Iraq or the antarctic for all I knew)!!

I seem to remember a certain young lady ( I wont mention that I am now referring to Briar ) poking fun at us guys for not listening or reading !!!

Now you girls ! Its our turn to tick you off ! There is a thread on Viva ( even with pics ) on this very same forum !

Viva.... in Nabq ? in Sharks Bay ? .... try Hadaba !!!!

P.S. Now I know why the old Carrot is foresaking his beloved Nuweiba for the charms of Sharm ! All this toples talk is blowing his top !!!

Yes Swiss, Briar is right, I was pointed in the direction of the wonderful forum and pictures of Viva Sharm, but it confused me even more!

Where am I staying? Is it near Sharm, Is it near Naama bay or am I in the middle of nowhere?

Cheers!

Sharm is really two bays, Naama Bay and Maya Bay, and a big hilly headland in between. One area of that headland, the area close to and above Maya Bay, is called Hadaba. Read again the paragraph on that posting there is a link to maps. Bear in mind that those pics were taken in 2003 and things are even better now. Its a nice little hotel - and fortunately for you you will be far away from where the Carrot is staying so you ll be perfectly safe.

Coming back to the original post in this thread; at the Movenpick in Sharm there are big notices (in English only!) informing guests that topless sunbathing is not permitted on the beach or around the hotel.
As far as sunbathing is concerned; if you go in mid-summer I would strongly advise blue-sky bathing in the shade of a large parasol. You'll go just as brown but without burning.
