Well I guess we have all heard the grim news about the bombs up in the North Eastern part of the Sinai penninsula and our thoughts are with those of you directly affected and your families.
The Foreign office has not actually advised against travelling to the Sinai, though obviously it does advise caution. Having said that, I would strongly advise any of you popping over there do go along to their web-site just to check:

Grief that was a long URL, but clicking on it will give you the latest advice for Brits travelling to Egypt. Please bear in mind that this advice is relevant for those of you from the UK, other nationalities should contact their own equivalent of the Foreign Office.
Please remember Egypt is still pretty safe and the government have a long history of taking every precaution to help keep things this way.
Sharm el Sheikh has not been affected by these latest incidents and is still a thriving mecca for us divers.
