On a joint military exercise an English soldier, an American solider,and a Russian soldier found them- selves sharing a tent while on a military exercise and the conversation turned towards how well fed each of them was.

"In the Russian army we get 2000 calories of food a day" said the Russian.

"Well," said the Englishman, "in the British army we are given 4000 calories of food a day."

"That's nothing," said the American, "in the US army we get 8000 calories of food a day."

At this the Russian got very annoyed. "Nonsense," he said, "how could one man eat so much cabbage!"

Thank you very much!
I`m very interested in several things:
1. cost of life: food, transport, water, electricity, gas
2. cost of private lessons (languages)
3. Is there developed horse riding (equitation)?

It is for my son, 11 years old.

Regards,

Konstantin

Equestrian? I'm not sure about that you might ask a member here named PENNY, she is quite knowledgable when it comes to these matters, as well as apartments/flats possibly available. You can send her a private message, this is her profile, just hit SEND NEW PRIVATE MESSAGE:
http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile;u=00001925

Good luck! [Smile]
(BTW, in your other thread I put BYOV, it means Bring Your Own Vodka). [Big Grin]

Thank you! I don`t like VODKA. I prefer GIN "Beefeater" or "GORDON".

Good luck! [Smile]

I have seen a badge/sticker of a horse on my friend's car window, I think it's because he is part of a horse club, i'll find out for you tommorrow.

for your expenses take the following in consideration:
1. food - cooking or eating out - how many times per month/week
2. transportation/traveling - taxis or public transportation (they're not that bad in alex) how often and where
3. extra-curricula activity/socializing - clubs etc how often per week/month

you can get a rough idea of your living cost based on that.

Thank you for your reply.
We live not luxury. We don`t eat black caviar. We don`t use taxi all the day. We don`t drink a lot of gin, vodka, others strong drinks. I meant average expenses for the family whicj cosists of one lady and his son. Excluding expenses for schools, amusement... Apartement for example costs 1000 LE. How much in average to pay for water, electricity, cooking gas...? Only appoximate. I can evaluate it in London, Paris, Barcelona and of course in Moscow. But in Egypt!!! I think it costs several times less.

Regards

Konstantin

Dear friend!

I have no answer from your "Penny". But if you want I bring good vodka from Moscow especially for you if you don`t mind! My wife and me liked very much your joke about cabbage like 100% fod of russian soldiers.
