The attitude of the RC church to "artificial" birth control and the resultant ignorance is, in my view, one of the biggest problems holding back the Philippines. I read that there are political moves to change that and introduce compulsory sex education but, surprise surprise, they are being fiercely opposed by the RC church who have threatened to withhold communion from any Senator who votes in favour on the grounds they are not "pro-life". It just has to change. With the economy already unable to support the current population, and so many totally dependant upon remittences of one kind or another, what will happen in the next 20 years if the population continues to explode? I just hope expediancy comes to the rescue before starvation or natural disaster but that hope is not really very strong because I cannot see any real acceptance there that there is actually a problem. They blame Gloria and corruption for all their ill fortune and never target the real culprits.

A very valid point

Isn't the rhythm method "so what if we have 10 kids, it's Gods will"? Seems the case for a lot of Irish catholics I know.

Hola amigo.

Imagine her surprise, when she received flowers from Interflora at her workplace
Yes. I know I'm an incurable romantic, heheheh

I ain't upset....

As flowers go I would recommend..

Used several times in the past, and apart from one little cock-up which was essentially my fault (right person but wrong delivery address given), they have been great.
And also very reasonably priced.

Hasta luego....

Yes it's funny, the only contraceptive allowed but also agree and thinking that even Theology professors and RELigion teachers might used other contraceptives like miscarriage

That's more FUNNY

Separate Continents seems to work

You know as well as Flowers you can always send Choclates and other gifts which can be shared with Family.

As you know many Fillpinas are very family orientated and of course we all like treats to oursleves I know my Wife did when in Phill it was also nice to send say chocs and sweets or voucher to a resturant which she could share with the family.
Which in turn will cheer her up.

But having written that she has a bad tooth (hope she is better soon) so maybe foods of any kind are the last thing on her mind

[Fitzy]

Hi mate.

What a great idea, and thank you.
What is the best way to send a voucher please?


Philip

Im a bit out of date there were very good websites i used at the time my wife was in phill 04/05 but they may have changed.

Maybe worth asking in a seperate post, for those who are up to date

They are never the best value for money as the comapnies take there cut as the flower companies do but the pleasant surprise is worth it

[Fitzy]

Just tried Island Rose

What a wast of time
It says my basket is empty when it clearly isn't

Never mind.

Will try somewhere else.

Cheers mate


Phil..

[Fitzy]

Will send her something nice tomorrow to brighten her day

family planning will never happen in the Phils....politicians are too afraid to voice out their opinion..

[Fitzy]

My dad used to work on the VC10 simulator at Cranebank - I visited that a couple of times.

He later transferred to Cabin crew SEP training and I had a play in the mock ups there.

Yep, that was a few years ago .... he joined BOAC, having retired from the RAF, in 1969.
