I think RickyR Googled himself, on the wrong thread

I realised that Simon ... the perils of Googling yourself
At least it was another of my threads !

I last visited the Philippines while working in Malaysia in 1978 and hoped one day to return, just like General Macarthur in 1944. It's taken many years (and 6 months on the forum !) to make up my mind ... but at last I've booked my flight to Manila for May - no big deal, but exciting for me ! Thanks to my friends here for encouraging me !

Hi Allan! Just drop by here to tell I'm happy for your your decisions!
Enjoy your stay and have a romantic time together.

oh, a lot has changed since then Arthur.... thanks for visiting Pinas again... so your gf is from Marikina eh.. you can stay in any Ortigas hotel so you're a bit nearer to her.. and nearer to Greenhills as well.. take her shopping there if you could... SM Marikina has recently opened... Eastwood is also a great place to shop and dine..

And you're going to Capiz right? ah, nice beaches there as well... you will get the tan you want...

Thank you for your good wishes and advice Florge 30(+) years ago there was martial law under President Ferdinand Marcos , Claire had a hit song called "Sayang" (Sorry... you have a boyfriend), and the Heart Center for South East Asia had recently opened in Manila ... so, yeah,I'm expecting changes ...election time as well !
I'm not so bothered about getting a tan (sun exposure ages the skin and I don't need that !) but the swimming should be great!
