Default Mr brothers been caught up in the Egypt bombings....

My brother and his wife have been caught up in the bombings in Egypt. They are on their honeymoon, but luckily are ok. I had a phone call from them saying they had walked past one of the hotels 2 hrs before it was blown up, can’t believe how lucky they are!

We’ve all seen the bombing in London, and obviously it distressing to see what’s happened, but when you experience your own family being caught up in these atrocity’s do you realise and take note of what terrible crimes that have been committed.

Didn’t get much sleep last night through worry, but hopefully they’re getting an earlier flight home...

Did you see on the news. The bomber threw a small stun grenade first. So everyone came out to look at what the noise was, then blew up the main device.

Juut like the Africa bombings of 98(ish)

Thanks guys for your concern.

Heard this morning that my brother & his wife have got a flight home tonight , but for obvious reasons, and rightly so the people whose hotels were blown up have got the first flights back.
