    That's great Leen, Next time you will be meeting some Pinoys/Pinays along the way. You will be enjoying yourself and just take one day at a time.

    That's also I did Leen, going to Library, borrowed books. I think the bank account to open can be quite a while to wait, and some proofs of address they require on it. Its hard to get through sometimes for some offices to get my name on it. What keeps me going out is that there are free community classes, I got to attend some crafts lessons, Food hygiene,etc.Where you can also meet some friends.That's great that you have settled in just so fine.

    Hi,

    go to HSBC and they have a passport account,you can get one of those by providing your old Phils address...or my wife got one at Nationwide by having a NI LETTER and by me giving a covering letter.might be of help.
