Yeah,thats travellers receptionloads of strange people back then,I met a guy called Harry,he was an old cockney geezer,he had been writing to a girl in Mindanao,she had invited him for a meal so he flew to manila-cebu-Davao caught a bus for half a day,got a boat up the coast then found out his pen-pal had a boyfriend so he married her sister
the last I saw of him he had married a sri-lankan and was off to Sri-lanka to set up a language school or something,you couldnt make it up
