Thanks for the semi-piss take of a reply and for keeping up your usual practice of putting people down with out full knowledge of a situation.
I'm only asking for advice/help on how to present the comings and goings of my money!

Manila Bound, there is no point in being offended by my reply, most people on this site know me, they know I am one of the most helpful individuals ever to have come on this site, but as I said, you really do make me laugh, your outgoings would have to be presented like this:
Income £1200.00
Board to Mum £ 80.00
Disposable Income £ 1120.00
Based on the above, you should have no problems convincing the Entry Clearance Officer of your ability to support your wife without recourse to public funds, provided that your wife is able to live with you and accomodated at your Mothers home, i see no need for any concerns on your part.
I am mortified that you find my reply a semi- piss take, in fact, It was an honest appraisal of how I saw your post , because I found your grasp of the reality of life, a little hard to accept, £20.00 a week for your accomodation and expenses, seems to be out of touch with the cost of living in Toni's Kingdom, however, your post made me laugh, I am always honest on this forum, and will continue to be so, and as for your assertions that I do not know the circumstances, you've already told us, " You live with your Mum and pay £20.00 per week" what could be more simpler than that.
If you are hoping that your Flipina Asawa is going to cost you another £20.00 on top, my question is this
Have you actually got one ? cos my experience tells me, that they cost an awful lot more than £20.00 a week, Courting and marrying a Filipina is not cheap, Ivor mark his card will you !, John, Rob, Keith, Paul, Peter, will no doubt back me up, I may be wrong...no doubt you will correct me, but I still think you need to take a long hard look at the realities of bringing a Filipina to UK.
Room temp alone goes up substancially, increasing your heating bill in Winter, by 200 per cent, my electric bill doubled the last quarter because of the heating being on continuously at 25 degrees, when it was nice and warm outside.
Food bills alone will go up, Filipinas have to have their own food, that might mean you and your wife having seperate meals, hmmmmm I can think of one Filipinouk member who told me this is true, its certainly true in my case.
Costs of extra phone calls, calling cards, to Philippines, when they want to call home, £10.00 a shot, twice a week is £20.00.
New Clothes for Winter, jumpers, boots, etc etc, and the list goes on !!
So £20.00 a week hmmmmm need to do your sums again..!!!! ang kuripot mo !
