Here's a good one..

Made me think! If the Chinese are paying for this new super duper 'smart City, do you think that
they will be putting their knowledge of Feng shui also known as Chinese geomancy, to good use ?......

Ps: shame they are still pushing that old Khufu burial crap...

In the Egypt episode he talks and goes down into the subterranean chamber, What he doesn't say is:
And I wonder why ?
That there is a further 25ft deeper shaft with tunnels at the bottom running off West & East,
but you need a rope to get back out.
I didn't take a rope with me....

Ps: 12m 48 sec in you can see the old surround to the shaft.

That in my opinion is a wise bomb disposal expert. No suit, so less restricted movement.
I had a mate who worked in that field, and he told me that the armour is useless, it merley gives...

Manchester - Cairo
First post
I've just seen an advert stating that Egyptair will be flying 3 times a week between Manchester and Cairo. This is due to start 2nd July 2015.
Last post
I should perhaps have worded my op better and said announcement rather than advert. Sorry, no prices noticed.
