Alas I was a long way away from the pyramids... though I did run up some rather rocky hills... they were kinda like mountains really... but not really big enough to be considered a mountain! Getting up was great fun... getting down again was bloody awful! Lost my footing on some loose rocks and gashed my leg and arse. Nice! That and a treadmill in the gym that I wasn't allowed to use above 10km/h meant I ran just over 3 miles in total.

The Holiday was great though - apart from 2.5 days in bed with severe stomach pains (I've since heard this is quite common in Egypt! :eek. Weather was perfect (coldest day averaged 38 deg C ... most days were 40degs. Snorkelling in the red sea was absolutely fantastic and riding camels across the desert was a great experience too!

I don't believe that you ran out of time to tell us you were off. I reckon you did it on purpose, just to see if we missed you

Glad you had fun in Egypt, though with injuries and stomach pains (yep, I had a dodgy day with those too, and I have a notoriously strong stomach) it sounds like a whole lot less fun than it could have been.

exactly that ped

BPC... I'm usually known to have a stomach of steel... though I suppose I did fairly well compared to some of the other brits at the resort who ended up in hospital they were so ill Granted the holiday could've been better... but no point in dwelling on it so I'm just glad that I enjoyed the days I was able to
