    I Find this site because of this link http://www.pinoyminimall.co.uk/acatalog/links.html

    hence my initial thread is in tagalog, but then again as i keep on browsing i realise the purpose of the site, but what really makes me start this thread is when some cockiness was being brag and non a single Filipinas reacted negatively, instead everyone seems to be enjoying it, well again its your opinion so i respect it, now im showing my opinions seems mostly are affected. admit it or not reality bites. so i guess its time for me to say shut up though im starting to enjoy my posting now. but when everyone else are angry with respected status (i guess respect doesnt ***********.com where you can really speak you mind.

    Ok Lets start all over again so that once and for all people here at least understand my predicament.

    1. I join this site because i thought this is a site for FILS in UK who want to get in touch with other Filipinos.

    2. Realising that the site actually is intended for other purpose so i just occasionally visit it for some interesting topics.

    3. The bragging and showing off started, i find it hey this is so pathetic that i want to puke, but realising that im a newbie here i waited till someone who has a respected status at least reacted on the post. for crying out loud no one seems to care instead its getting longer and longer,

    anyway this is a forum so again its their right to do that, so i started a thread that somehow i know have some pinch, viola! a lot of reactions though others don't want to accept that fact, and try bashing the threads with its Read before you POST thingy i become cocky, started complaining, picky and nosy, ok fine if thats how you find me then so be it.

    now somehow some members thought im belittling filipinas here esp those who has a local husband, believe me, no pun intended, if for some reason i offended you i apologize, i came from a country(not phils) where discrimination is a mortal sin so im not in liberty to belittle anyone. The real OFW's im talking about is to those Filipinos/Filipina who still remember hows the "normal" life in phils is thats why they are here working and sacrificing their own families back home,

    if others still cant find the bragging im talking about so be it, it just mean its either you didnt read it or you find it normal and not bragging at all esp for those who are here long enough and totally forgotten how difficult life in Phils is thats why they miss it so much!

    ok peace to all.

    So you know the poeple who miss phill because their familes are there and most of the Filpinas on here are probably like my wife who sends most of her spare cash home and biggest expenditude after that is for phone calls home.

    Yes she misses home because of the foods, places, smells and the people she knows and loves. Whats wrong with that?

    Can you highlight where the people brag on here? many of the filpinas work harder here than in Phill fulltime jobs, no maids to help with house work. People in phill are amazed we do most of the work on our houses oursleves and have no maids or what have you.

    Maybe you have an easy life looking for beer buddies but wife like others is constantly worrying about family back in phill and has openly said her life would be easier and simpler in phill than here.

    Last question do you actually know any of the people on here?

    3. Breakfast in the Gazebo laid on by the maids.

    4. My driver bringing me the Manila Bulletin at 8am.

    5. A Mango shake placed at the occasional table after breakfast.

    6. Sitting reading the political commentary waiting for Madam to put on her face to go downtown.

    7. Going to SM City for lunch at Shakeys or Bobs.

    8. Mojo's at Shakeys.

    9 Extra Mojo's at Shakeys.


    10. Internet browsing in the afternoon, while Madam goes around, leaving hubby to take coffee at Bo's coffee house or Bobs Cafe.

    11. Meeting up with Brit expats at Foreigners bar for Premiership football on Star sports whilst enjoying a few San Miguels, and taking the p.....out of everything that doesnt work in the Phils.

    12. Eating out at the Thai Buffet downtown area, for P190.00 a head.

    13. Saturday Mornings with my barkada at the firing ranges, shooting and a few soft drinks and snacks.

    14. Sleeping off my hangover after going out with my barkada to xxxx bar downtown and then running the gauntlet of my wife's reklamo..at the amount of time spent drinking.

    15. Sitting out watching the sun go down at the other side of the world, sipping on a ice cold San Miguel and putting the world to rights with my Filipino freinds.

    16. Sleeping in bed with nobody outside having a fight or falling over in the street, or sound of police or ambulance sirens.

    17. Having a foot massage and foot spa whilst I am reading the paper.

    18. Having a cousin come over and give me a full body massage, and a head hot oil massage.

    19. Sending my driver down to Jollibee for a family meal of burgers fries, and ice creams for everyone at the house.

    20. Finally - Snuggling up to a sweet smelling babe who just came out of the shower fresh wearing Narcisso Rodriguez...aahhhhhhhhhhhhh

    I do!!

    Utopia

    Bragging?

    I think you need to find a dictionary with a clearer definition!

    Don`t worry..It`s not your fault.
