Thank you so much for all the input so far. So very helpful. However I knew a lot of this already.
What your not reading is that I wrote to the Embassy in London and asked there advice and shown them my criminal record sheet from the Police and from that they have Black listed me already. So I wouldn't be able to visit there even for 21 days. Friends who know people who work in Philippine Immigration Manila have asked them what I can do and they say I have to clear my name. Well how can I do that for a conviction that is eight years old? It looks like there is no hope.
I want to finish by saying thank you to all of you.
My partner will have to come here.
If a conviction is spent you should be able to present a case to any country even if they require a judge to confirm the person is reformed and it cost you say a thousand dollars etc. World Governing body are struggling to work how how to patrol Globalisation - look at our country. The world is too small now for this. What difference dose it make if I walk on this patch of land or that? None! If I was that much of a concern a judge would have me locked up for life. I naturally disappointed.
Love conquers all.
Best
Nic
