    I remeber speaking to one of the Wifes cousins who is a lawyer in Manila and works with yanks and Brits. She didn't understand the British very polite to those they don't know so well and always teasing and almost rude to one another

    Our Family group as we dropped off the Cousin at her place in town she works at bumped into a bunch of the Brits. So we ended up all eating together at first all us Brits very polite with one another by the end of the night we are taking the mick out of our differences. I.e those from up north and south etc, football teams etc.

    All the phills were baffled We had gone from Brit politness to almost open warfare
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    Somebody,I met a british guy when I was out with friends in Davao,he was from newcastle and an ex-squaddie,funny guy,he was a bit drunk,after a couple of hours the pinoys in the group thought we were going to have a fight because he was calling me a wa**er and I was telling him to F-off But we were actually getting on great
    No Pen,just Gracy and I have walked along the same streets but at different times.



    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.

    Our Barangay Captain in Laguna worked with Brits before and when he learned that my hubby is British, he said, wow!!! they are polite people. But other visitor said. NO, they always swear We were talking in his office and they ended up arguing if Brits are polite or rude

    Hubby's first time in Pinas was funny. Everytime we go to malls, security guards always greet us Good morning Sir/Mam. Every person in our street who greet him and smile at him, Hubby always spoke to them. He said, Penny, I have noticed you don't greet every person who greets you. Say Hi to them and have a word with them

    I said they are many so I just smiled at them. If I speak with them like you do, we will always go home late.
