I have just got back from my third holiday in Egypt on diving holidays. This time to Marsa Alam. It was great to feel the optimism in the air from Egyptians that they have now peacefully thrown out Mubarak’s dictatorship and have now endorsed reform and moving ahead to elections in the Autumn.

I found lots of people wanted to talk about the revolution and their part in it and their hopes for the future. Continuing complaints are about getting back the stolen money and how to reform a police force that everyone I spoke to sees as corrupt and tainted by close adherance to Mubarak’s regime.
