    Anyone know if Brian is ok ? Last action on here end of last month (October 30th ) and we know what an avid participant he is.
    I messaged him with reference to his pain meds on the 30th. This was his reply.

    "Thank you very much mate, I am currently trying to wean off of my medication here but in the current heat lately I feel like I am stoned drunk and having a bloody heart attack all in one! I am going to check out the link you sent me now.
    Cheers, Brian"

    Hope he hasn't had a H A

    Sent an email to him and I found him and his wife on Facebook as well. He made a post on Facebook in Tuesday (the 4th) about a book being sold on ebay. He didn't have any friends posting on his or his wife's Facebook and no notices in his hometown newspaper so I'll take that silence as a good sign and hope that he is just busy doing other things.

    Looks like he is big into cars...seeing he is from Queensland I looked for car shows and found this: http://www.shannons.com.au/club/events/

    Here's to hoping he is drinking a beer and looking at some old cars.

    "Here's to hoping he is drinking a beer and looking at some old cars." Wrye83. It is good that you have some concern about him. I had been exchanging some texts in hope of meeting up with him to talk about a mutual interest. After a couple of texts he did not reply. That was a couple of weeks ago, but I am not sure of the exact date, so you concerns have some validity. I took hope he is doing well.

    Sorry Guys, talk about a Blue @ss Fly chasing his tail! I thought it would be a good idea to leave things to the last month seeing as how I often misplace things and forget shyte but d*mn! Selling on eBay, I realise now I have ran out of time to offload much of what holds value, getting paperwork sorted with the Department of Foreign Affairs here, Police Checks, trying to cover bases getting some more Passport Pics taken, sending out stuff I have sold to buyers, Dr's visits, immunizations (GOD I HATE NEEDLES!) and trying to sort out a CPAP Machine I bought for my Sleep Apnoea. Still need to get the paperwork to sell my car and remove the OINKS Number Plates so I can pass onto my Son. My Daughter arranged a road Trip so leaving this Sunday to head North to visit the Lad missus and kids then also visit my older Sister on the way, so there goes 4 or 5 days I cannot afford to lose... Started packing the Balikbayan Boxes, was told "DO NOT MAKE THEM HEAVY" WTF? I packed Saucepans and Pots inside of each other and would probably have 40 KG's inside 4 carefully packed and taped up containers with 3/4 of the Box yet to fill, I do not want to send AIR! I plan to pack every square inch with something even clothes between pots etc so there is no air space! Lucky for me I have my Airline Tickets booked, the Hotel Room Booked with Shuttle Bus service so I can be picked up from the Airport on the 23rd and dropped back on the 24th to catch my flight to Dumaguete, and be finally, BACK HOME! :smile:

    Question Guys;
    When I get back I plan on applying for the 13A Visa.
    Where do I go in Dumaguete/ Zamboanguita to extend my original Visa which I understand is only for 29 Days...
    I wish to keep extending until I am issued with my 13A Visa as I do not wish to exit the Country each year.

    That would be cool mate as asawa has no idea either where to start. From what I understand, I need to go in at least two weeks before my current Visa expires so that gives me a couple of weeks grace to settle in then start the ball rolling. :smile:

    No, you can renew it two week prior to it's expiration, not earlier than that.
    Link to the map. If you need directions from any location you can enter them in there. It is hard to see from the road. There is a hallway that is between an M Lhuillier pawnshop and a bakery. Looks shady to walk down there but it's safe. Good luck finding parking.
