Cheers Dawn -x-

Hi Dawn, There are duty free shops in Hurghada and El Gouna. If you wish to make any duty free purchases, you have to do so within 48 hours of landing in Hurghada and take your passport with you as they will check your visa. Sorry, can't help with the Winking Frog, I'm sure somebody will give you directions though, or maybe if you just hop in a taxi they'll take you there.
Regarding Skype, it is very easy. I only started it very recently myself. Just go to Skype.com and download the software from their website, it takes about 2 minutes. Once it is downloaded it will search all the email addresses in your address book and find anyone that already has skype. There are instructions, that are very easy to follow. Once you are set up, you can speak to anybody who also has skype for as long as you want and free of charge, you will need to buy a headset with microphone to do this. I bought one off ebay for less than a fiver
