    thank you for the link, that was most helpful... looking forward to the independence day fiesta, hope to see u guys there..
    God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people i had to kill because they pissed me off.

    Thumbs up Filipina life in the UK.

    Thanks Andy, I have bookmarked the site for when my wife joins me in the UK (hopefully)soon, this will help her adjust knowing there are events we can go to.

    It would have been nice to attend to these events, making us less homesick...

    unfortunately, there's none in scotland so far

    Hello Islander, Mick here, I am on an Island at the other end of the country from you, so I dough there will be any we can get to easily, but if my wife is struggling when she finally gets here, I will just have to stay over somewhere so we can get to some events.
    Perhaps others fro Scotland will see your post and you can start a mini meet up? You never know, I do realise how important friendship is to most Filipina’s.
    All the best,
    Mick.

    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    My honeys cousin lives in Poulton Le Fylde north of Blackpool, we attended last year, a bit manic but usual for Pinoy organised events and good fun. I guess we will be there again this year. The Birmingham event is on 21st 22nd of June and about 1 mile from our place so definite for that one

    see link if boss will allow

    i feel that i don't need to attend filipino events bec where i live its like there's always an events for pinoys (every weekend they have karaoke/drinking session) or if i go out going to town or supermarket guaranteed i will see pinoys.

    I brought my bf one weekend he can't believe how much they drink about 10 hard drinks on the table and they mix them all and he's not happy watching drunk people that you can't hardly talk to
