Bye Bye to the Shaf

I remember reports of Ben Ali and his missus taking a 1.7 ton container-load of gold from Tunisia when he saw the writing on the wall.

So much for security. If I'm correct, he's never coming back to Egypt.

Sure you can! Just bundle the cash first; it doesn't seem to go nicely into suit cases when it's loose.

Yet again another chapter in the personal grudge this guy has for Shafiq, the truth comes to light that he didn't read the ticket correctly that he was broadcasting to everyone. The 7 was representing the amount of cases Shafiq and his family had with them, the 110 kilo's was the weight of the seven cases which is well within the weight limits allowed. Since being called a liar and proven wrong, Sultan has removed the accusing item from his website/facebook page.

7 items at 110 kg. or 7,100 kg...... Which is it?

Nothing it seems is what it is supposed to be, either in the written or the spoken word in Egypt.
Why did we ever get involved.

7 items with a combined total of 110 kg.


With the amount of propaganda and lies that started at the revolution and have continued throughout the election process, it's a wonder that anyone believes anything anybody here in Egypt says anymore. I have a scepticism with almost anything that appears in the media these days. Surely it can only get better...
