back home

[equaliser]

Hi guys

I returned to the U.K on wednesday with Ashley. I can't stop smiling now that she is with me :D

I had a great time over there despite the fact that my suitcase got lost in Dubai. I think the problem was the fact that the flight from Dubai to Manila was packed full , and most were filipinos complete with balikbayan boxes. I can honestly say that I have never seen a luggage carousel so full in my life. Of course I had to wait until the end to find out that my suitcase wasn't there , but the staff at the airport were very helpful and it was sent to my hotel in Davao. The guy I spoke to in the airport even phoned me afterwards to check that it had arrived and that all was well.

Ashley's family had a going-away party for us at Paradise beach resort and then Ashley and I stayed there overnight. I would recommend this place to everyone. They are chalet type rooms with en-suite facilities and a little verandah where you can eat your meals. It was wonderful.

On the way back to the U.K , we spent a day in Singapore. Went on the cable car to Sentosa , saw the aquarium and butterfly house , etc. , also did the Sim Lim square , Suntec City and Orchard Road shopping.

We will post the photos soon. Now all our focus is on preparing for the wedding on August 22nd. We are really looking forward to it.

See ya

Brian and Ashley

You didn't miss much while you were away. There was a World Cup or something on, I think. No idea what that was about :D

Sorry about the weather Pete, but at least you got a taste of the standard we have here. ie. rain rain rain. Funnily enough though we had a scorcher today. 26C - not bad for us in the outer northern wastelands you imagine we live in 'darn souf'.

[KeithD]

I don't drink beer.....just bring extra condoms :D

A scorcher at 26C? You got to be kidding me...

[ivor&mel]

It's true... sometimes it gets as high as 27.2C. But... we're British... and we struggle through :D

[KeithD]

It was 33.5 here last week...reached 28.7 yesterday.....If it reaches 35 I'll take my pants off :action-smiley-075:

[russ01539]

A scorcher at 26C? You got to be kidding me...

Well the average here is just 13C in the sunny Lake District so yeah 26 is a scorcher for us. Just imagine the temperature being 13C higher than normal in Manilla and you might understand what I am saying. :doh

[russ01539]

Can you imagine Keith running down Metro Manilla with no pants on.

Bring on global warming. lol

[Irelandken]

Great news Brian, and welcome to Ireland Ashley. I hoped u might have brought some good RP weather back with you as Josephines first week here in sunny Belfast has not been the warmest:D .

[KeithD]

Can you imagine Keith running down Metro Manilla with no pants on.

Bring on global warming. lol

Do you always have nice thoughts about me being naked? :NoNo:

[russ01539]

Have you taken your pants off yet then Keith ?

[ivor&mel]

Well done - I'd forgotten that promise... Let's have the photographic evidence, Keith! :yikes: :NoNo:

[KeithD]

Some people :NoNo:

Here you are then....not a pretty sight though as it needs a wash....but here's my ass Click (http://www.littlefriendsranch.com/Daisy3new.jpg)
