Hi guys thanks for all the good wishes!
Yes im sure i will have a special Christmas, were both practicing Christian so its a special time of year for us.
ive booked with Singapore airways flying from Manchester, paid way to much for the flight but hey ho you only live once and i just started a new job that pays well and its the only time i can get off for a few months so i dont mind paying xmas prices.
Yes Jacks ridge is high on the agenda, my Gf tells me its a great view over Davao from there and the cakes look sarap!
Alan hope your property sells soon too, it not nice waiting even worse being let down.
Yes Rosie i will take good travel insurance and have my inoculations, ive followed your posts of your brothers situation and said a prayer or two also, i hope things work out well for your brother.
