Just another thought here,
VAT gos down to 15% for transaction on and after the 1st Dec, Might be an idea to hold off buying untill then

That's only a Fiver off £250 then by the time you buy it the haulage companies will use that fiver to cover their costs of increased taxes on fuel.

i guess prices will stay same as no one would like to lose and also you have to remember the GBP and Euro goes down against Egyptian pound so they already lost some money

i dont think the tiolet is big anough for a shower. Seriously you might a shower tray and get your own curtain or it might be over the bath.you should read your contract regards aircon if not in there you will have to buy

Hi Peter hope you see this but just in case will try and pm you. Called my local House of Fraser today and they didnt have the bed in stock so called my nearest largest store. They had 2 in stock and they DO have it on offer at £99 for the double up until Friday. I had the choise of paying there and then and picking up or pay another £30 for delivery which was what I went for as the nearest store is over 20 miles away and by the time I paid petrol and parking and getting back to the car on my own I thought better to get it delivered on Tues to my works address. After Friday it will either go to £199 or £249!! So get in as a great saving x

But when I called them diret today they defo said it was still on offer until Friday at £99 for the double so I gave him my card details there and then and took his full name and he confirmed it will be delivered to me on Tuesday so watch this space!!

Prices for furniture packs

Thought it could be interesting to compare prices for furniture packs that people have either been quoted for or had installed, as the ones I have had have varied vastly. Obviously quality will vary bujt at least it will give some idea. Or if you've done it yourself, what has it worked out at. If you could say how many bedrooms you have and whether it includes the kitchen units that would be very helpful.

Custom made furniture

We have just had a "test" piece of furniture, a console, made by Mr. Mohamed who has 2 shops in Hurghada called Wood U Like. The main shop is in Sheraton Road (the old town end) and it does not look like a furniture shop but he uses a carpenter to copy furniture. He has been importing some pieces of furniture from Malaysia and Thailand but has decided to go back to more Egyptian/Arabic style work but will copy anything.
He has some pieces on display in his smaller shop that he has had copied from imported Thai furniture that you can go and see and he tells me he is having a Christmas sale on his other goods.

We are pleased with what he has done for us and will be ordering more from him. He speaks perfect English and has gone out of his way to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted - he is in Cairo at the moment and is trying to find handles for the console to match our other furniture. Great service and prices. Definitely worth a visit. His mobile number is 0123504338. Don't call at prayer times as he will not be available.

I have recently come across a wee gem of a shop facing Oasis Resort on the coast road to El Gouna.

At first I thought is would be really expensive but the stuff is all handmade and really good value for money. They can make anything you want.

A bit more expensive than the shops in Hurghada but the standard is far more superior.

Their website is called www.finallyhome-eg.com.realestate.finish.furnishing
