As there is a very good chance that I will miss said gas lorry, is there a place I can take the cylinder?
Also, can I buy a second cylinder, how much should I be paying?

You can buy a new cyclinder from most electrical appliance shops and you shouldn't be paying more than 250LE. You'll get a shiny new bottle and then the first time you need a refill they'll swap it for a tatty old battered one! The gas station is on the outer ring road towards Makadi, near the army training camp and it costs 10LE for a refill. It's always hard to give precise addresses and directions for things here so I hope you find it.
