Petrol

Petrol is quite cheap here. To fill up the tank costs 57LE. This comes to roughly ?7,30; $9.40 USD, or £5.85.

Sometimes there are shortages of petrol. Some people think this is the military's way of getting back at the Egyptian people for inciting the Revolution. The other day we had to wait an hour for gas. A friend waited in a petrol line for four hours-- only to find out they ran out of gas as soon as it was his turn to fill up.
