suez canal
by Joe Buhagiar

Did you know that during the 1956 suez canal war
all the british etc where taken away from their
homes and interned for about 2weeks and guess
where they put us up....yes the English school
inCairo they took over the whole of the
dormitories and put a number of mattresses for
us to sleep.My father and I were put there and
my mother and sister were put at the British
boys school in maadi.They fed us rice and black
tea!!!!anyone else with the same situation?
