    Smile Filipino Festivals

    Hi

    I was at a Fiesta in london last year. Had a great time

    haven't seen many adverts about festivals this year. Does anyone know of 2008 festivals in the UK?

    Thanks for the reply, yes it was Hounslow I was at last year. Brill

    There is always death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.

    I understand there is a Filipino Festival, taking place on the Downs in Bristol.
    Funnily enough, I was talking to someone I know the other day, who is organising the Fairground for it.
    I think it's on the 28th June? maybe someone else can verify this?
    It's a shame, as I'm going to miss it, as I'm coming back, from my first trip to the Phils. on that day.

    They had one in Ashton Court, Bristol, a couple of years ago, which I went to sort of by accident...Anyway, I was told there is a new organiser this year.

    Got to be worth a look...I'll see if I can find out anymore info.

    If you get lost on the way just follow the cloud of smoke and keep and eye out for those pavements paved out of gold

    Grimsby is by far the the best place compare to Shefield..

    Having recently returned from a 3 and 1/2 weeks stint in London, I can cathegorically state that the pavements there are not paved with gold, but a varied mixture of chewing gums, phlegm, dog poo, parking wardens and general household garbage....

    They must have heard a non londoner was on his way

    Quick hide the gold a countrty boy is on his way.

    I must admit earls court is a strange one grotty roads next to very smart roads. Even in the same road a squat sits down the road from a multi million pound pad.

    London Gold

    Haven't found any gold about the streets myself.

    Only thing for free in this life is love and health
