Guys, I have received a very kind offer from "Cairodel" towards the "Help for Heroes" charity drive.
You may well know that Derek runs desert holidays around Egypt and the Sahara
Now these of course do have an overhead which needs to be met, so what Derek has offered is as follows
Now. I don't know what you think but I think the chance of a Desert trip for £40 quid a night is cracking value - the opportunity to give some money to charity, get the trip at a discount and have a stunning experience sounds pretty good to me.
So, whilst this is not an auction in the traditional sense, I thought a thread mentioning the offer would be a good thing. I guess 4 people could be 1 family, a group of friends or just 4 members who get together. Either way - feel free to use the thread to discuss.
I hope this doesn't breach any rules - Derek was reluctant to post anything in case it was seen as advertising but asked me to pass the offer around where I could. It was such a generous offer I thought it warranted a thread and a "thank you".
I really hope someone can get some fun out of it

My proposal would include :
Collection from Airport.
2 nights in Cairo 3* hotel on arrival. (B&B basis)
Desert trip of 3 - 7 nights (4 - 8 days), all-inclusive.
2 nights in Cairo on return. (B&B basis)
Return to Airport.
Time in Cairo would include visits to Pyramids, Citadel and
Khan El Khalili (souk) for pressies to take home.
Meals would also be included on these trips, although they would have to
buy their own alcohol.......!?! (Reds insert - this means you Joker)
Our price for these trips to BCUK members (min. group of 4
people, sorry, but minimum of 2 cars and 3 staff per trip) will
be £40 per person per day, with a 20% discount, half of which will go
to the Servicemens Fund.
