    Something we can all relate to

    When my wife and I married we had our honeymoon in Hong Kong. On the second night, we heard two rather giddy Filipinas check into the next room. Before too long we heard the sound of a mobile phone ringing. As is normal for Filipinas, the voice levels increased and I kept hearing this girl talk about a "Porn Star". I called my wife and told her what I had heard. She listened for a moment and started laughing. When I asked her what was so funny, she replied, "She is telling her friend on the phone that they are staying in a FOUR STAR hotel". I am sure we have all fallen victim to this one before.

    Nice one,

    A few weeks ago before I went to Phils, I was talking to Charie, we were talking about all sorts of things. Then suddenly out of the blue she says 'Mahal, do you think you can get me a see-saw' I said a see-saw??? 'Yes' she said. So there I am thinking how the hell do I get a huge playground toy to the Philippines I said 'Mahal... I dont think I can do that, do you really mean a see-saw? a childs toy where they sit on either end and go up and down???? ' She laughs at me and says 'Noooo, I said see-saw for cutting hair with' !!!!
    I love the way she talks, and we have a good laugh sometimes at the confusion we sometimes end up with
    If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up

    Believe it or not I said exactly the same thing too... instead of scissors I've mistakenly said "see-saw" my husband didn't stop teasing me for weeks to think I used to work in a call center for 6 years!!!
    But it was a good laugh... I'll remember it forever, when things will turn sour (which I don't think will happen) I'll bring it up for laughs.
    Life as we make it

    While coping with the "rigours" of a shopping expedition in the humidity of Davao City, Myrna and I [understandably] began to feel in dire need of some form of sustenance. And so we headed to a nearby Jolibee ... where I directed her to a table for two whilst I placed our order.

    Having duly partaken of our repast, Myrna suddenly announced: "I will pay for a while" ... and dashed off to the loo ... before I'd a chance to explain that the refreshments had already been paid for ...

    ... turned out she'd actually said: "I will pee (as in ) for a while"!
