    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.

    An actree Claire Danes, if my memory serves me right, was considered Persona non grata for a time bec of her stupid mistakes about pest in the slum area where she had movie filming. It is a slum, at for one to generalise the whole country is a no no ...

    Let us stick to what James said, and that is what the apology should be about. He made derogatory remarks on .... ahh, do I have to enumerate. He should know it.

    Senators and the like is another topic.

    I sounds funny? Now your asking me if you said James will be in trouble

    Someone made stupid mistakes about pest in the slum area?

    Her statment was a bit random but lets be honest some truth in there and of course the phills banned her films but funny how the president who banned her seemed to do actualy more harm to the country than any comments a film actress i have never heard of untill i googled her would

    But lets have a go at the person who makes a comment (even if a bit unaccurate) rather than debate with them while we ignore those at the top ensuring millions live in poverty

    My Wife, her younger family and her friends (male and female) all educated at some of the best schools and Unis the Phillipines has and none of them vote or have any opnions on their country and the way it is.

    Many if they have not already left want a way out of phill and im guessing like most ofws when they come back to retire they will just go back to ignoring all around them

    Sadly a place I would want my half phill Kids only to visit on holidays which is sad. To be honest as they will most likely have some of my Irish scots English ask cheeky questions and make franks statments nature they had better be careful
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    Hello somebody! I didn't say the word 'trouble perse' ... I said, he should be very careful when commenting. True or not, again hurting or not, acceptable or not. Just be very careful. You never know who is reading this forum. And sticking to the thread, he posted and others followed. What I am saying is - don't make sweeping statements and be very careful with words. That is all.

    As for bless books, I'm sorry.

    I'm sorry that I can't say what you want me to say to protect your feelings. I'm sorry I can't see the sense in covering all my words in sugar to make you happy and most of all I'm sorry that I even got dragged into conversing with someone so silly!

    I'm glad that the one (bless books) who's defending heaven/paradise Philippines saw fit to leave it and is now teaching others how to get an ILR.

    Once again, sorry

    Good to know James you have asked for an apology from bless.books. My attention was caught by the title of the thread hence i read it. At the start of this thread i said good thread James and a thumbs up:! I was so surprised to read the discussion went through onto the next pages because of the comparison made between a rich country and a poor country.

    Good one James you have asked for an apology...
    Good one Bless.books you have said them all in a polite manner....

    Cheers to both of you!

    Oh and to add, that is one of the things i like about the UK. People know how to say sorry... they accept their mistakes...

    Regards.

    Hmm, this is going to be like talking to blessbooks

    If you are English (or Scottish, or Welsh, or Northern Irish) you are also British and live in Britain!

    You haven't told us though, why you are proud to be English, what is there to be proud of - for you - in being English?

    Someone dares to challange something jimeve says, he's thereby declared a troll.

    Whilst, the thread is "proud to be british" . . . he comments, just to mention that he's not! Good contribution

    Ok, you go and enjoy yourself, you ray of light! Wifey and I going for a pasyal, byes
