Mr.Gaddis has just informed me that the Hurghada convoy has finished anyone can travel any time of the day alone but you have to arrive and be through the first check point before sunset or else you have to go by private convoy.I sppose if you are cutting it close and you dont think it is sunset somebody will say it is so better to get there a bit earlier i would suggest.

I have just checked with Mr.Gaddis and he has said yes it is from today 01-12-08. He had the information from the State Security direct to the embassy office this morning.

Wonderful, it was hair raising in that convoy being forced to drive so fast and idiots keep overtaking each other, so many accidents and deaths!
