Re: Birthdates here in UK

[Tiggers0608]

Hi, just a small simple advice to all pinays and pinoys going to UK or new here in UK, when you put your birthdates on forms make sure its DD/MM/YEAR

well i made a mistake and i just dont want you guys to make the same mistake hehehe , coz in the phils we're used to put month/day/year on birthdates. good luck

hope it helps.

Hehe .. the same advice, in reverse, is useful to Brits coming to Phils! Everytime I write the date (not just birthdate), I have to stop and think about it!
