Steve,
Here are some figures for you for Hanna and I.
2 bed apt. Cebu - P8000
Electricity (Don't use aircon) - P1400
Cable - P675
Internet - P999
Gas bottle - P840 (Every 2 months)
Water - P160
Motor Bike - P4000
Food, bottled water, fuel, brandy and cigs - P8000
Going out for a nice meal once a month - P1500
Now, as a teacher of mathematics, I'd better not get this wrong - err.....about P25000 @ 68 pesos to the pound = about £370 a month.
Of course, as people have said, it depends how you want to live. Some months it might be a little less, sometimes more if we buy clothes, medicines etc....
Hope that is a small help to you!
Al.
