That Cairo traffic is madness.geekymummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529149669501249892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-30362483735198074732009-04-07T17:00:00.000+01:002009-04-07T17:00:00.000+01:00Glad you are enjoying yourself.Tagged you here: ht...Glad you are enjoying yourself.<BR/><BR/>Tagged you here: http://tinyurl.com/d66qqsUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02424852811523341436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-3030406647343458922009-04-02T08:03:00.000+01:002009-04-02T08:03:00.000+01:00Glad you're OK.

In other words, some Egyptian taxi drivers are maniacs and we are forewarned. Are the state sponsored ones more sane? <BR/><BR/>Husbands can be such idiots, can't they? Especially the Dutch variety, because they are so stubborn. You go ahead and always book a taxi from now on, PM.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I hope the rest of the trip is fun and not so fraught with danger, but I guess we'll hear all about it.

So be careful, PM (as I'm sure you will after that experience....).nappy valley girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10788949037047084412noreply@blogger.com
