    Hope your enjoying the sun Al and Hanna. Think of us lot on the UK, shivering in the rain, paying sky high prices for everything and just being rather envious of you.

    BBC reports today that a single person needs £13,400 a year to live in the UK. . And that doesn't include housing. Oh joy

    The only time I have been in prison - thank GOD - was to do some teaching to the prisoners. Would not exactly be my number one choice of life.

    Actually went to Cebu for a job interview.

    Got the job!!!!

    Now comes the hard bit - finding a cheap roof over my head. The job is in Mactan.

    Seen plenty of cheap roofs around Mactan airport from the plane. They're rusty corrugated steel usually. I guess you don't want THAT cheap eh?

    I think loads of properties around Mactan area, for rent or for sale. Just shop around and try to look at Cebu properties in the net.

    Congrats and goodluck.
    Regards,

    Prof Al, that is a great news! Are you going to get a big villa so we can spend holidays with you and Hannah?

    A man walks down the street
    It's a street in a strange world
    Maybe it's the Third World
    Maybe it's his first time around
    He doesn't speak the language
    He holds no currency
    He is a foreign man
    He is surrounded by the sound
    The sound
    Cattle in the marketplace
    Scatterlings and orphanages
    He looks around, around
    He sees angels in the architecture
    Spinning in infinity
    He says Amen! and Hallelujah!

    If you'll be my bodyguard
    I can be your long lost pal
    I can call you Betty
    And Betty when you call me
    You can call me Al
    Call me Al


    oooh beetttyy

    Sounds like me if i went op noorrff

    I wonder how long will it take on jeepney to get to Lancashire?

    I've got a house in Lapu-lapu you see, and it's currently empty, and it will only rot without anyone in it, so I thought I'll offer it to Sir Al and the missis

    Hi everyone.

    As usual, many thanks for all your good wishes in this thread. (BTW - I have PMd. Tish - isn't that an unbelievable offer??) Just goes to prove about the wonderful 'family' here.

    My job is at a private, English Language school (Cleverlearn English Language Institute - CELI) teaching English to, mainly, Koreans and Japanese.
    The pay is not wonderful, but obviously better than nowt - and should be enough to keep me in dried fish and tuba!!

    I am supposed to go back there tomorrow for an induction day - but - as usual - can't get off the mountain at the moment - God is having a shower again.

    I'll keep you posted!

    Couple have twins - father has accident and can't attend the Christening - so his brother goes in his stead.
    Afterwards, father says to uncle -
    'So, what did you call the girl?'
    Uncle replies:
    'Denise'
    That's a nice name' father replies - 'and what about the boy - what did you call him?'
    'Denephew.'

    Al.
