Re: UK passport office

The UK passport issuing process for Brits born (like my 18 month-old son) abroad is a total disgrace too. :thumbdown:

Re: One Way Ticket

From what you (OP) have described, you are still a tourist, regardless of the status/passport of your wife (and Balikbayan is a privilege given to you at the discretion of the immigration officer......

Re: Problems

Thanks for for that helpful information...admittedly illustrating the costs at the other end of the spectrum to those which some of us mere poverty-stricken plebs are likely to be able to afford. lol...

Re: Problems

Well I'd just be using a fan, as to pay that amount of money for aircon (on my budget) would be ridiculous, as well as totally unnecessary, as fortunately I know I can manage without.

Re: Problems

How much would you save by just using fans rather than aircon ?

I'd like to retire there too...on a small income, but I've never used aircon in the Phils. I've lived there before for periods of up...

Re: Where to live in Subic to avoid the sleazy areas
