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.
Five more years, then I will take early retirement.![]()
Heading off to pinas?![]()

Hi Penny,
I think everyone is proud of their own country and often object to others who knock it.
However, it is ok to knock your own country, as this is one of the ways that public opinion grows to perhaps make a change.
"People Power" in the Philippines was a great example of this.
If only we in the UK could organize "People Power" and overhaul our corrupt politicians. It seems the Daily Telegraph is doing a great job in exposing corruption here.
UK expenses is recorded whilst Philippines, I can't remember if we have records. Media can do nothing too much with corruptions, they know they will be killed if they will expose too much in papers. How many journalists killed? I can't remember

Still hoping that someday, corruption in Pinas will be declined if not eliminated.![]()
If we have a corruption expose at least in the UK mostly they have the good grace to bow out with a modicum of face,in pinas walang hiya,they hang on like lamoks and refuse to leave office,I remember the rice crisis when the Agri minister was interviewed "Now is not the time to point the finger of blame,we should instead address the problem" which is poli-talk for "S**t,I f***ed up big time" we do have some accountability here,pinas its all deniability,and pen is right about Journos,I spoke to one earlier this year involved in a shabu case,he said he didnt dare say too much![]()

Indeed its far more in your face in phill, but to say there was not a huge risk. The telegraph and the actual people outside the telegraph were taking big risks if it for some reason did not capture the publics attention which kept them out of jail and safe from comeback.
But from what you can hear from journalists in person, which you know will never be published due to understandings etc. The press in the UK is far from perfect, it only publishes what it wants you to hear and thinks it can get away with.
Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops
Thats true,I was going to say Journos here are a lot safer than in Pinas then I remembered Veronica Guerin.
