Dr. Galal

This is Dr. Galal, our landlord. He's a lovely bloke, very well educated and travelled. With all the nonsense going on in Egypt over the last month, my salary was one of the many things affected. He was very understanding about it all and was adamant that we were not to worry about it and just pay when it eventually arrived.

Today I paid two month's worth, which I thought was arrears for January and February, but which Dr. Galal reckons is advance for February and March. I tried to argue the mistake I thought he was making, but he was having none of it.

A proper gent.
