God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people i had to kill because they pissed me off.

Well ... we're ALL individuals - each with his/her OWN sets of living standards [and hence values!] as pre-determined by our different circumstances - but that's what makes this forum ... indeed ... ANY "meeting place", really ... where ideas and opinions are shared and debated, so lively and interesting. Human existence would be extremely boring if everyone were to agree with one another all the time.
And I'll bet the mild-mannered man who initiated THIS thread (like I unwittingly did with MY controversial subject a couple of weeks back!) never imagined for one moment that (like me) he'd be stirring up a hornet's nest when HIS topic was first placed in the 'melting pot' for discussion.
But then ... THAT'S LIFE!
your quite right arthurAnd I'll bet the mild-mannered man who initiated THIS thread (like I unwittingly did with MY controversial subject a couple of weeks back!) never imagined for one moment that (like me) he'd be stirring up a hornet's nest when HIS topic was first placed in the 'melting pot' for discussion., must be that time of the month or we all are coming into the forum after a argument with the gf/wife

Good Luck to Matt with his GCSE's, Maria ... we're ALL agreed on that!yes it is maria BAB
wouldnt dream of suggesting otherwise Ive just had the experience of offering to pay the rent on a small place etc and got turned down for the reason i mentioned "dont want top live alone with daughter" I realised nothing to do till i get back ho humWell this is my situation Keith. My wife shared a Boarding House, with her 2 sisters & friends, that came & went. Both her sisters, have married & live in America...So for now, she is there on her own, so I'm quite aware of her financial needs.

Well Said.Sorry to be so obtuse the crux of my point is that if your lady has no idea of the relative differences between your income and expenditure costs in the UK (clearly not your experience) then she may be thinking along with the family a extra 10,000 here or there makes little difference especialy iof she has never run a household this can strain communication especialy when trying to sinc times with a terminaly slow and erratic net over there
its my view that the money spent by guys in a 2-3 week visit bears not to much connection generaly to their normal lives over here and if that is taken as the norm complications can arise.
As Joe says its easy to spend money you didnt earn especialy in a culture that doesnt often think or have the ability to save and if we go along with this without carefull thought we may have to deal with it as a bigger issue later on.
When Im in the Phils now I try to understand the local version and stop thinking its only a quid but rather its a third of a days wages like Fred It matters not a jot what anyone sends but others may like to understand the local economy and cultural pressures before stretching their resources to attempt to support a lifestyle that has no relationship to the vast majority in the Phils
I always thought Matt was your husband, Paul ... so did I, for long enough!
