Welcome to the forum George.

Your post made me smile...thinking of my stepson who I brought here also at the age of 9.....and who also can't now speak a word of his native tongue. :NoNo::biggrin:
Same with my stepdaughter who was 7 years old when arriving here.

Shame really, but you can't force people to hang on to their heritage.

It's the relations back home who get REALLY confused:Erm: though.

Good luck with bringing your fiancee to the UK anyway.:xxgrinning--00xx3:

Hi to you George, and welcome to the forum. :welcomex:

Hope you'll stay and take full advantage of the experience and guidance here.

May I kindly ask you consider the benefits of getting married in the Philippines
and making application for Spouse visa. Arriving into the UK on a Fiance(e) visa can (currently) result in a very long and difficult wait before being able to work.

That was my original plan but everone kept advicing us that to marry in the uk. so we made that decision. well nothing is set in stone yet and im still saving up so we could still marry there..
