That was between them Sophie, two cops and it was Manila, the chap I referred to pretty much confirmed that 500 peso was a safe bet for a westerner. Better to err on the high side than to upset them.

I would agree with Tawi's story about the drink driving I've been told about that too.

Other advice was don't carry your UK licence on you because they will try to confiscate it.
