thanks again for all ur kind advice ! makes sense to sort it soon as i arrive at manila airport. I've informed my hun that i ll be out of the airport later than expected!
@Jim , i have just replaced my passport (thank god - only took 2 weeks on standard service!) so i'm safe there! I was looking at KLM flying out of london city airport for a change, but a friend got me a discount on BA (dont laugh cus they are talking about strikes during xmas period) an i fancied flying out of terminal 5 this time round!
I ll just blag them at LHR saying i ll be going to HKG for a few days and coming back to manila during those 23 days.... if i really need to!
cheers for the advice
