Dear Neighbours:
I have to admit that when I left Egyprt, I did not know how hit a nail with a hammer. Now I love to do everything myself even when I make a mistake I learn from it. Everything is on the net in HOW TO website. I learned how to instal ceramic tiles on the floor and on the wall and many many things and enjoy doing either for myself or for some one else.
One of the things that I noticed in Egypt that people live to themselves. In my house here when I decide to anything inside or outside, my neighbour brings his tool box and come over to see if he can help me, talk and socialize until we finish the project.
Talking about tool box, I brought with me to my Villa in El-Rehab and along many trips all the tools that you think of. From saws to drills, nails, electricals....etc. which I used many times to repair things in my place and the neighbour's villas. It is a good social gather that bring us together in a team work and each one knows something the other does not know.
In El-Rehab where majority of us lived abroad and saw all these things, it will not be difficult to help each others as long as we love to do it. It will be easy to push aside the old traditions and BASHA, BEAK..etc show off. Let us be the pioneersa and many will follow.
As soon as I come for my vacation, I shall have lots of meetings to call for. Many remeber when I moderated the residence's meetings last winter which resulted in the group of four team who is legaly asking the JEHAZ about many of the violations throughout the city.
We need to change ourselves so we obtain the change that we are seeking.
All the best.
