    I have 2 questions for ya.

    1) For you Filipinos living in UK, how long did it take you to get used to the UK weather?

    2) For all . . . do you Like or Dislike the weather in the UK?

    Look forward to hearing your thoughts
    I will simply says, I like UK springs where I can see leaves coming, flower blooms. Winter makes me feel ill, I look like a michelin, I feel I'm carrying heavy loads, can't wear sexy clothes and uncomfortable wearing too much clothes. All trees looks dead, very dull and birds hard to find their food. For my 3 years stay, I don't get used to it yet. Hubby said I need to gain some fats that could help me keep warm. I love to see snow, but hell to touch it. But then there are things and natures that amazes me. The Flora and Fauna, clean surroundings, and landscaped UK. There's really no perfect in this world!

    I was shocked when I first saw their prawns here. I was at seaport and boat came with boxes of prawns. I asked my husband why the prawns are red? They look like well cooked.

    Technically Pen these on your picture aren't prawns - thats langoustines also known as Norway lobster, Dublin-bay prawn or scampi - one of the export articles of Scotland.
    Know a little bit about them as I've spent some nearly 3 years in Scottish west coast near Isle of Skye (Kyle of Lochalsh) handling them (and other creatures) from boats, processing and packing...
    They are very very yummy - especially grilled with garlic butter, mmmmm

    Your photo of prawn is exactly what in the box. The only difference is yours is singular. But still not sure if langoustines/prawns and most important is, it's superb delicious. Isn't it? I am a crab expert when it comes to getting crab meat from its shell. Most factories here are seafood factory.Baho noh? I always have it free.

    Their lobsters are very different. Colourful !

    The big picture of scampi just looks like a pink cockroach
