Want One?



Ahhh luxury Yachts, the epitome of wealth and the go to place for the jet set...who doesn't like lazying around in one of these in Gouna, Mykonos, or the South of France...we sure have never complained!

Well besides the Yachts we all ride around in here which are honestly nothing in comparison to what we see abroad, Weyves Luxury Yachts have stepped it up a notch and partnered with no other than Mr. Elie Sab (who's name seems to be everywhere now a days) to create ONLY 3 exclusive Mega Yachts for the company!

Saab was hired to give creative direction with regards to the interior of the yachts and the concepts for the exterior, the first of the 3 yachts will be revealed this month at the Abu Dhabi yacht show!

Yeah so we're guessing it will be near to impossible to get our hands on one of those!

Table Compliments



Table Compliments, Home Accessories


Who said home accessories can't be artistic?? 


Check out Compliment Home Accessories and Wall Art! We love the product, not to mention they're very well priced and offer really original items!


We think the concept is actually really interesting, check it out:


Table compliments has an Elegant and Unique Collection of Coasters, Trays, Placemats and Heat mats. The Designs were created by a group of Artists and Designers, therefore all the designs have a unique character and you'll find various styles to suit different tastes.

COASTERART is a new concept; They are placed next to each other to form a picture which basically allows the coasters to decorate your table whilst having character as well as to be used as regular coasters. Just think of it as a print or painting for your table!
We are glad to say that Coasterart was featured on the design year book website wich features the best and most innovative designs in the World.
Some of the designs are drawn then printed, and some are a combination of print and hand drawings.


Please call 0110005232 for any information

Past & Future



Well this is interesting! A project aimed at restoring history and our famous archeology while compensating citizens the same time! 

Archeologists have uncovered 65 of the 1,350 sphinxes that lined a path between temples during the time of Pharoah Amenhotep III and the excavations should be completed in March. 

"
The project will cost 60 million Egyptian pounds ($11.7 million), half of which will be used to compensate about 2,000 families that must be relocated to make way for the roadway, said Egypt’s chief archaeologist Zahi Hawass."

Well at least they're compensating those that they are relocating, and improving our countries history is definitely important!

O on Valentines



As V-day gets closer and all you boys and girls out there start worrying about what to get your loved one's or where to take them out, we have the solution!

Valentines Day at the O Bar 

Imagine sipping on a Martini, listening to soulful music and enjoying the freshest sushi in town, that’s how I want to spend my Valentine’s Day....

We can’t think of a better way to spend the global day of love. So on Sunday February 14th the doors to O Bar open at the Fairmont Nile Towers. 

Located on the ground floor of Fairmont Nile City, enjoy a night of live music, great ambiance and sexy Martini’s for the ladies.

What about the gentlemen? The O Bar has a walk-in humidor that displays a wide selection of Cuban cigars. 

Flown in straight from New Orleans to Cairo, the Fairmont's resident band Diamond Life an established vocal/piano duo made up of soulful songstress Carrie Gibson and pianist Joe Bashorun will be belting out tunes all night. The merging of this unique vocalist with one of the most talented keyboard/piano players in the business has created one of the best duos in the industry today, entertaining audiences around the world.

We definitely think this will be an added venue for Cairo's Glitterati, probably appealing to a bit of an older crowd as well!

It's Here!



The video is finally here Cairo! Lara Scandar's official video for "Mission is You"


The song has actually really grown on us, especially the arabesque beats added to the song! We think it definitely beats the Thai singer's version for sure!


But one constructive comment...if you wanted to continue with the western standards the credit role at the end of the video shouldn't be there, the video clip isn't a movie! We don't understand arab videos when they do that!

Weather troubles!



For all of you in the Middle East, we're not sure if you've heard or not but our east coasters in the US have been hit with a pretty bad snow storm! For all of you in the Mid-Atlantic area for college or work, stay warm and safe! 

We've also heard that there was an earthquake that hit northern California just a couple of days ago as well. What's going on with mother nature!? 

From the entire S&H team, we hope everyone is safe and sound!
