I can't recover my password so had to create a new account. Not sure why but main thing is I am here! I was here over a year ago when I was planning to take the wife and kids to the UK and within a few days of landing in the UK was sent off to Oman, Qatar and Dubai.

So here I am again preparing for a flight into the UK for second week of January to start looking at getting the wife and kids into the UK full-time. So much has changed in the Philippines in the last year I can't really see us wanting to be here long-term. I can live with the earthquakes and typhoons but not the inactivity of the government and the corruption that stole from emergency relief.

It took things to an all time low for me and its not a place I want my family to call home UK has corruption for sure but stealing in that way when companies and people gave so much just disgusted me beyond belief.

Bit of a negative start to a welcome message.. But looking forward to spending a bit of time on here and making some new friends.
