Important points each country needs to know that you have a will in the other and each have a copies of both.... 'existence of any other wills should always be disclosed to ensure that they are not inadvertently revoked, resulting in an intestacy situation either in this country or abroad'.
So there we are , something else to worry about!! and more LEs to shell out.

I have just made a to die for cocktail and thought I would share it with you as it is Saturday evening.

Ingredients:
1 watermelon (about 90p here in Egypt. Remove seeds and put in blender)
Grapefruits freshly squeezed (about 20p each here)
Soda water
Gin (If you can't get Duty Free then Butlers Gin is LE53 for 700ml)

Chill the juice and soda. Put one measure of gin (big) in a tall glass then three equal parts of the melon, grapefruit and soda water.

Yummy, yummy, yummy

Thanks Helen (& Delboy

) The most stressful part is before we get to Gatwick, all that packing

Actually, I'm starting to wonder now, with all these tradesmen around, just why are we paying developers to build our property

LOL
