    Hey, just come across this story ... similar, in some ways, to my own - but also different in many ways. Is everyone bored by now, would you like to hear my version?

    I would for one Peter. Also, you're only up the road from me in Reading.

    Okay, I'll have a think about writing my blog.

    Yep, I'm not far away, and am very interested in your proposed meet .. especially sometime mid Sept - end Nov, when Ruby should be with me!

    Hi again Al, I love your story(i'm hooked as you can see)...and I do love happy endings too, 'though I know we all have pasts and sometimes or most of the times they've been painful but it contributes to making us the person that we are now. Stronger, more mature and capable of giving love and appreciating in return. This is what I like about this forum, people are real, mad or bonkers at times but real. We share one common goal I think, to love and be loved...
    Oh by the way, I heard you're coming back to the Philippines? Correct me if I'm wrong but have a safe journey if you do.

    And hey Peter! I'll look forward to reading your blog too. I might persuade Trev to write our story one day, his English is better than mine. God bless us all!

    Hi Al..

    Great story.. I find your writing style very entertaining.
    In a way it reminds me of a British film I saw in the 80`s starring Charlie Drake entitled "Filipino dream girls"..

    I have only just received your PM as we have spent the last couple of days with relatives in Batangas..I spent all day yesterday trying out my new fishing rod suspended on a bamboo raft about a mile out..Didn't catch a bloody thing!! I`ll reply to PM when I have a minute..
    Cheers,
    Fred.

    Met Alan and Hanna--hell of an adventure that day but it was worth it. It was hilarious and I really enjoyed being with them. It's_me_eye and Maria were there too. Uploaded some photos.

    Thank you mate for that.

    Please congratulate your kids for me - I would LOVE to think it had something to do with our chat, but I am sure it was just your brill kids who did it on their own.
    Well done to them.

    See ya when I get back mate. Luv 2 everyone.

    The mrs just got back from SM Bacoor and said a bomb went off..
    Many dead apparently..

    Not sure if it was actually a bomb as she says she heard no explosion,just a crowd running towards them in panic..
    The panicking crowd said it was a bomb.


    NEWS AT TEN,
    FRED,
    CAVITE.

    Salamat Kimmi & kukurokuk..

    They both seem to have settled in now although it was a bit tough at first..

    BTW..The "bomb" wasn`t in SM but an illegal TNT factory in Bacoor town. (fishing explosives).. I hear it leveled 6 town houses with 2 dead.

    On the jeep home she was told stories of headless bodies and 100`s of dead in a bloody carnage.
    Never believe what you hear on a jeepney..

    Alan, this has been a great read. I know you're in PI at the moment and why. Are you going to continue with your blog?
