    I was planning to go with Pia as its less than 10 mins drive from our house but I guess it depends on whether we are back by then following her visa being granted. I am hopeful.
    Be responsible with little so that you can be trusted with much!!

    I think Keith should go to all of these festivals and set up a FilipinoUK stall where he can sell his watches and take a few bets on the side, then we would all have an ideal place to meet up.

    Hi Piamed, Sconnie and Tish,
    Great to see you all at the Barrio Fiesta on Sunday! Pity not all of our group turned up but it was still a good day out. I have a few photos... I'll try to upload them here.
    I wish I could go to the one in London but I'll be in Boston until Monday. Toks, you never know, I might bump into you in Logan Airport on Sunday!
    Cheers!

    Andy

    It was truly nice to meet you all. It was a really nice day.

    John, I hope your parents enjoyed the day albeit a wet one. It did get better. I look forward to seeing your pics, especially the ones I want to share with Pia - you know the ones I mean

    Enjoyed our chat Andy. I postponed my trip across US for now. Hope to see you soon ad that you find that special one soon. Thanks for posting the pics.

    Hey Tish, hope your young man is working out by now..

    How many hours drive from Berwick Upon Tweed to Yorkshire? Any exact post code? We went to Stockton on Tees Festival about 5 hrs return drive and I suffered from food poison. I had lechon, dinuguan,kare-kare and 1 pint of UBE ice cream.

    Hi Tish,
    Yeah, wish we could have chatted longer, but I'm sure we'll all meet up at one of the numerous fiestas! It was a really nice family atmosphere on Sunday - great to see all the kids enjoy the fun!
    Until next party-time...
    Cheers

    Lovely smiles! Feels good looking at the wonderful faces of the four of you and other attendees. Sure all of you had a great time there.

    Thank you for uploading the photos and safe travel to you and Toks.
    Life is a matter of perspective. Either you complain because roses have thorns or you rejoice because thorns have roses. It all depends on how you look at it...
