hi there! my wife and i have been reading topics on this site for more than a year now and i think this is the easiest way to find some filipina living near our area. My wife has been stayin here in uk for nearly a year now and she's moaning coz she still hasn't seen any filipina around our area. is there any filipina here lives in lancashire?

[bornatbirth]

would help if you told us which town you lived in?

filipinos are everywhere, is there a filipno store near you or church or even better a mall...almost every time im out with my wife i see some filipinas.

get some dutch courage and talk to them

Hi,

There's a Philippines Independence Day Celebration on the 11th of June 2011 at St Albans Social Centre, St Albans Church Place, Lark Hill Street, Blackburn BB1 6HG starting at 7pm. You'll meet lots of filipina/filipino in there. Tickets are sold at £11.50 per person and 16 years below are free.

If you need more info let me know and I'll forward the organiser's details to you.

Thanks,
Tish

congratulations to both of you and goodluck! missus' so happy seein your reply.

If you want to find a Filipina try shouting 'Kamusta Ka' in crowded places. If your lucks in, bingo, whisk her away somewhere quiet but if it isn't you might get whisked away yourself.

we tried it a few times and ye we ended up whisking away ourselves.

have you tried looking in manchester or a chinese store near you?

theres a barrio fiesta in manchester every year and in leeds, there maybe a local filipino community near you, have a look online.

blackburn must have some living there

[lydon29]

hopefully or anywhere nearby so she can just meet them up anytime she wants specially when she's really gettin bored. Manchester is quite a bit far only took her there a few times, but surely loads of filipinos there.

[bornatbirth]

there must be some near you, just try and think of how to find them

[alanp]

there is a barrio fiesta in Blackpool on 31st july http://www.fil-event.com/events/Barr...lackpool.shtml
or if there is a hospital near you there will be some Filipino nurses there.

[joebloggs]

there is no barrio fest every year in manchester bornatbirth,
but as alan has said, many filipinos are found working in hospitals and carehomes,

[scott&ligaya]

try the local catholic church, even the non religious ones will go there for the fellowship with other filipinas

Lancashirelad,
Bring back memories.I lived near Cleveleys for 5 years in a past life, Rossall,loved the summers but the winters were diabolical
when the wind was howling. Is Streets bakery and coffee shop still going?

Yes, ... this does tend to be a problem facing many ladies settling into a whole new lifestyle - thousands of miles from everything that has been familiar to them for so long. However, I'm hopeful the suggestions others have offered thus far will help ease your wife into feeling "more at home". Perhaps ... like you've done ... she might consider joining our friendly, online filipino/uk forum - which is an ideal site for dealing with the transition.

take her to a catholic church.. every sunday the filipinos goes there =)

or to mcdonalds, kfc or pizza hut =)

[Lancashirelad]

We are at Blackburn Cathedral every Sunday attending the 9-10am service then downstairs chatting over coffee and biscuits, you would be most welcome to come there
