Great to be here My profession is writer/journalist and although officially retired I continue with freelance work for various media. I lived and worked in Africa for awhile returning to my home town near London March 2006. I have researched Philippines over the net and am looking forward to visiting, particularly when it's winter here and hot in Cebu. Would love to meet a filipino lady and learn more about the country. In the meantime lots of good cheers to you all in the forum
