Hi,

As you are all doubt aware I am coming to live in Egypt next year:clap2:

Whilst I am trying my hardest to limit what myself and my daughter can bring and we will of course be turning up at Heathrow with a large number of suitcases there are a few things that I would like with me out there I was wondering If I post them over to my husband would there be any extra cost involved other than the postage.

Things I would like to send are clothes, shoes and of course for those that read my threads some of my bags. We are not talking a big box and the contents would all be used and of no real value.

I just posted a envelope to him and he received it after 2 weeks. there is no time scale for my box to arrive just would it and would they then charge another huge amount for him to get it

Is posting the way or would DHL or someone like them better???

any advise would be appreciated.

I have recently moved to Sharm el Sheikh from London, and am looking to meet some english speaking friends! I enjoy all the usual kinds of things such as shopping, going for coffee, visiting bars and clubs, and day trips / sightseeing. I am looking to meet genuine female friends of any age (I am 31) with similar interests.

So if you have recently moved here like me, or alternatively if you just want to widen your circle of friends, then please do get in touch - it would be really nice to hear from you!

Best wishes
