I'm thinkin troll as well, but sometimes trolling can be fun. I guess they have internet in the family's house in this shanty town since he is posting late at night on the forum.
They wouldn't use the words shanty town in the Philippines, they'd call it a Squatters Village more than likely. I stayed in a Squatters area next to Ayala Mall in Cebu for several weeks. It's ok, but the nearest internet cafe from a jeepney ride away and it wasn't open 24/7.
"Amongst sharks in a Philippine shanty town"
"My prostitute wife's family"
"Surviving on bjs and San Miguel beer"
"A fated Love in the slums of San Fernando"
How long ago was this? All it takes is a phone line and a laptop these days.;)Quote:

However, I don't agree that this isn't going to have a happy ending. I have known many Filipinas who have segued from this into having happy family lives with western husbands in Hong Kong.
Moog - you met Sandra??? :dev+ang:

A true squatters village/shanty town will not have phone lines. :)
If there's phone lines in the place he's at, it's not a real shanty town. ;)
Lap tops work off of mobile phones now aswell, even third world Thailand has that :)
^^ It is, and I've got some pictures to prove it so there.
one mans shanty town is another mans ........erm ok i havent thought of the second part yet, but it started so well
I haven't met her, but if I had, I wouldn't be discussing her merits and demerits here.
In many ways it might be advisable for TGS to discuss quietly the entire issue with friends, rather than open it up here among a group of middle-aged strangers.
It calls for some serious decision making rather than..... 'run Scampy RUN!' homilies.
Though I wouldn't want to put him off from marriage if the girl is right. Toxic Mothers in law can be set aside. Thats what I did. Some limited rapprochement usually takes place when Grandchildren emerge, and at that point one makes it clear that Daddy is the Boss of the family, not Granny.
oi ^ who are you calling middle aged? :p
I haven't met her either
if I had I would post all the pics I had...yes, all of them
Ok, here's proof I'm in the Phillipines, this is me standing up in a street outside the family home.

She doesn't have the phone to her ear in this one.
