Latest I've had is seven dead. As ever with this sort of thing all a bit sketchy.. A mate does stay there when in country with the news teams he minds, but he is currently sunning himself on a beach somewhere in Cyprus! Phew!

The hotel does have sh@t loads of security, but its all local hire...

ooooh local employed security...say no more! They are fantastic...until more money is offered by someone else
