i just want a simple life. keeping up with the neighbours doesn't interest me. It shocks me how expensive the uk is getting. The main problem for me though is how unfriendly it has become here. Most people wouldn't p**s on you if you were on fire.

Like yourself I'm p'd off with most things Britain but after just one visit to the Philippines it's not difficult to understand the everyday difficulties of living there. It's certainly no picnic, especially if you're already on a limited budget as one of your earlier posts suggested.
Have you been to Philippines before?
july will be my first visit. I am on limited budget for the wedding and stuff but our plan is to live here, work and save for 6 or 7 years then move to phils with enough money to live comfortable on. Plans sometimes change but i hope we make it happen.
Exactly everyone needs dreams and targets in life hope yours work out for you
But you may find your Wife has differnt ideas, my Wife loves UK life the queit and beauty of the british countryside, london and the hustle bustle.
She stills loves going home to phill, but like me wants the best of both worlds.
Yeah, i have to expect that too. Maybe my gf will love the uk. I'm sure we'll be happy wherever we live. I enquired about flight prices today and just my luck, i am travelling just after it goes into high season. I was getting rediculous prices. Do you have any advice on the cheaper airlines or websites. The cheapest price i got travelling on the 19th july was £679 i hope to get it for between £500-600.
don't forget that tickets are 40quid more due to the'green tax' that I'm sure is getting spent on planting trees
by the government.
plus the 3% inflationso thats 60quid more than last year already
I have found expedia, opdo and other internet search engines give you most of the cheapest filghts.
A mate looked everywhere for filghts and ended up on one of the big websites as they block book the tickets and often cheaper than the airline and bucket shops.
