So kind .... what a great forum this is. Everyone so willing to help. I'll get the T shirts with flags asap. Wonderful.

 

Help from another angle ..... great! I think I can keep my head as I am a pretty level-headed guy and not what might be termed 'a headless chicken'.

You mention needing cash - is there an 'TERMINAL' fee or an 'EXIT' fee that I don't know about?

 

Please Mr P ... do not put a damper on this exciting adventure. I am keeping my resolve and going HEAD-first into it ... I have already been told these places are a CUT above the rest and I believe I have the NECK for it. But thanks anyway for your concern.

 

Just makes you wish you could be in two places at once ..... if only the human body was modular and parts could be separated.

 

And on these island you can be hangin' over the buhangin (cebuano or tagalog for "sand").

Thankfully,the irony, puns and sarcasm is not lost on me because an encounter with a bolo is never fun.
