    Ricky if your covering expenses I bring your letters out. I think a round 800quid should cover it. Actually best make it 1600quid, should bring the wife really. I'll let you have my account details and as soon as the "expenses" are in I'll wing my way over!!

    I can do it for about £700 Ricky And unlike those two I don't need to bring my g/f, I can meet her in the Phil's, we'll just need a return flight from Manila to Cebu for her

    weekly installments of a pound are fine for my £700...that means it will take you 30 years to pay it back with the intererest added

    To stop any arguments I think you'll find its first come first served! DHL is very unreliable, you need that personal touch that only a slightly drunk midlander can bring to such an important task as hand delivery of mail!

    Thinking about it I'll leave to wife but I'll still need the 1600quid. Buisness seats aren't cheap you know

    Ricky,

    Only just read this thread. We leave for Cebu on Saturday, and will stay for 6 months. It might be tight now to get things to us but if you want to try PM me and I will give you my address, or even call you if that will help. By the way I do use a DHL based service from the UK to the Phil. It costs £20 for an A4 sized package and has been very reliable. Everytime it has got to me in about 3 days.
