Hi Folks, well eventually i've found the laptop, and internet.
Been too busy lying in the HOT sunshine and propping up the bar.
The flight was uneventful and got through the airport hassle with ease.

The St George as it is now called is fantastic, and just what everyone has said it is.
Staff are very friendly and helpful, food is the best i've had on a AI holiday.
Plenty of it.
Internet is 50Egyption for 4hrs on WIFI and 30 for 30min on desktop.

We asking when we will see you again, hopefully soon.

Guest Relation Manager

Hi everybody don't panic. The St George is still as good. So i'm told.
We returned late last night from sunny Sharm,weather never went below high 70s. Blooming cold here?

We had a great time at the hotel, with all the staff going out of their way to help make out stay most enjoyable.
Michael from guest Relations is a star.( he left for a holiday on Sunday) Fady, Romany in the bar, Madhoud and Samy at the small pool, Ehab in the pool bar(thanks for the pint jug) Victor in the restraunt, everybody.

The hotel has not directly been affected by the unrest in Cairo. Although the internet was a bit hit and miss when we left.
The hotel bank was still closed after 9 days with out money.
All trips to Cairo, Luxor,and Jordan are cancelled, others were suspended due to lack of petrol and diesel.
The shops in Nama bay were struggling to stay open, some hotels are closing due to the number of tourists being repatriated by their governments. Nama was a ghost town at night.

Saying all that, the St George still works at full strength and was expecting 77 folk in yesterday. and another 80 over the next few days.
We'll certainly return.
Don't be worried about visiting Sharm, we encountered No animosity or problems and had a great holiday.
Enjoy
Jimmy

as far as the trips go ,we aint going to go on trips this time round its more or less a week of relaxing, but we will go down to nama bay at night for a walk. thanks for the update think it will put peoples mind at rest about sharm with the current troubles going on there, hopefully it will all ease of now . tammie

You'll have Nama Bay and Sharm all to yourselves Tammie
Don't worry about anything, just enjoy your holiday. wish we were going Back.

oh sounds good to me, was there a few years ago, and it was in oct time packed out and got pushed around a lot by the crowds on the day , roll on tues cant wait now

Thanks for that report on the current situation there Jimmy . We arn't staying at St George and dont go to april so I know a lot can change but I've been on the lookout for info from returning passengers right now .

Prefer to hear it from the horses mouth rather than the press. If we were due to go tomorrow I would with no hestitation after reading that .

Hi Jimmy

Thanks for posting it's good to hear a report form a regular on here who has just come back. So glad you had a good time.

I'm not going to St Georges, but it sounds like they are managing to give holidaymakers a good time despite the problems in Cairo which must be worrying for them.

I suppose there was no 'buzz' in Namma Bay like there normally is, but that's to be expected with all other Country's having pulled out I suppose and presumably not many last minuite booking.

I guess the hotels that are shutting are having to weigh up just how many guests they have and if it's financially viable to keep on the staff and pay them for just a handful of people.

Sounds like you will be back in the not too distant future.
