Hi,everyone so sorry it has taken me soooo long to write about my glorious week at st georges,I am about to leave a holiday review,on the review page.All i have got to say you wont be disapointed I went in feb and was it hot it did not go below 90 any day,the pools were so heated it was like bath water,the food was lovely,alot of choice,but we was only there a week,if there is anything I have got to grumble about it was st georges private beach it was a little dissapointing,but on the whole it was a great holiday,we all did get a bit of a dodgy belly the last day or two of our hols,luckily it was at the end of our week,and we was carefull on what we ate,I think alot of people had a bit of a delly belly some worse than others.Luckily none of us got bitten by the mozzies but alot of people was walking around covered in then,one fella was told by the doctor he couldnt go out in the sun,so be very carefull just take precautions.I will leave more of an in depth report on the reveiw page.

thats nice jimmy sitting at home -4 you just has to rub it in he he. anyway excersion look up sharm club and book all your trips through them they are the cheapest and you can book before you go but dont pay anything until you arrive just get hotel to call them to let them you room number. if you want to know any good excersion let me know i have done them all when i go back in july just gonna have a relaxing time. (ps dont do mount sinia) it killed me walking up a hill for 4 hours in pitch black with a cheap and nasty torch toilets on way up just think film slumdog millionare at top its ramshackled huts selling drinks you see sun rise and walk back down.

well enjoy jimmy as i have 6 months to wait for my return but looking forward to it just another hint if you get inticed into a shop and it sells perfume,s and they try and be hospitable asking you to sit down and stuff dont walk straight back out they can try and get really offensive and use bully tatics but its show to make you buy dont fall for it just walk away . remeber what ever the cost of the item half it take off 5 and dont budge walk away you will get it for it . i do know the price of tobacco had went up since my first visit 2 years ago so 200 l&m,s are around £7.50p in our money out and about in markets and shops. as a fellow scot like myself the whisky in the hotel is rank the brandy is fine and so is the vodka . p.s remeber jump into pounland a buy plastic pint tumbler its about 20 for £1 take them with you . also get your mosi stuff in there aswell for £1 it works a treat.

That's fair play, if it is 4hrs on a "pay as you go" I was on the understanding that the internet was free at SG3C?

but reading bout hotel on here has brought me in to a new lease of life , cant wait to go now, roll on oct. thanks for all the info mind at rest now :)
