Jesus, Fred ... I've just skimmed through all this mind-boggling stuff,and wonder how some of these expats in the Phils compare with the inmates of G-Wing at the fictional Larkhall womens' prison in ITV's acclaimed drama *'Bad Girls' screened HERE in the late 1990s?
Dunno whether or not *its ever reached your "neck of the woods" yet ... or if you'd happened to see the series on any of your visits to the old homeland?
