Topper in Bacolod

[Saint Willy]

Yah! That's a gem!

[Shutree]

... and the waitress is smoking hot.

Pics? Asking for a friend.

[Topper]

Couldnt get one without being obvious

[cyrille]

The chef learned to prepare Thai food in Bangkok.

Is it called 'Lille' because of any connection to the place in France?

Couldnt get one without being obvious

'Obvious' is the way to go. Hiding in plain sight.

[beerlaodrinker]

Agree, not like this classic that will never leave my head.

Buong bansa ay nagkakasia
Sa tuwat saya na aming dala...

Wonder how many times Topper will hear this in the background before suddenly realising he knows the words too

Ha ha. Its kinda catchy and annoying in that "last song heard syndrome"

[Headworx]

^Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet bulaga! Don't make the mistake of listening to it again BLD, it'll be on rewind all over again

Hey in case you knew him, Mark Smith of Roadhouse fame in Del Pilar then Fields Ave passed away in Las Vegas from lung cancer a few days ago. Best bar operator I've ever seen, anywhere, ever.

@headworx - Lol. This one's for you...

Mula Batanes hanggang Jolo
Saan ka man ay halina kayo
Isang libo at isang tuwa
Buong bansa
Eaaaattt Bulaga!

Translation:
From Batanes to Jolo ( those are islands/ provinces in the northernmost & southernmost of the country) wherever you are, come over here; one thousand and one joys/laughs; whole nation... Eat Bulaga!

Eat Bulaga is a long-running noontime variety show - 41 years on the air next month (I googled) - July 1979 first air date. Their entrance song is very catchy and easy to remember.

Anyway, on another note... update on the Spanish national who was unruly and was deported last April. He's now "perpetually banned" from the Philippines. A warning to PI expats and wanna-be expats...

Javier Parra 'perpetually banned' from the Philippines

^ I wonder if my wife can get me deported for unjust vexation...

[tomcat]

^ I wonder if my wife can get me deported for unjust vexation...

...an unwelcome bulaga, I imagine...

[Topper]

Saw this a moment ago, this is the area where my office is.......

Belgian guy got killed.

[Jofrey]

M16s?

Better get tooled up Topper...

[cyrille]

This guy doing crime reports really is quite bizarre.

A 'Benny Hill' style reenactment at the end would fit well.

Wow.... another Benny Hill reference from you.

Did you have more than 2 channels when growing up?

[cyrille]

Some major butthurt plaguing you, that's for sure.

[aging one]

Dont mock yourself YD. Its quite unbecoming..

[panama hat]

Dont mock yourself YD. Its quite unbecoming..

Apt, though.


Must admit the guy commenting on the vid is cringeworthy . . . like he's been in Flipflopland too long and has almost gone troppo

[cyrille]

I think it was possibly being in the UK, listening to local radio djs pretending to be American that sent him 'troppo'.

Long before he got to 'Bakalaad Sidee'

[Topper]

I was walking by the butcher by my office and saw a rack of beef ribs.

Got these two for a bone crushing 210 pesos.




I'm going to salt them and let them hang out in the fridge till Sunday, I think.

[bsnub]

Got these two for a bone crushing 210 pesos.

Damn four bucks. How much to they weigh?

[Topper]

Together I would guess around a kilo.

Edit : 1.4 kilos, I thought it was the price.

[bsnub]

That is killer provided the beef is not total shit.

[Topper]

TBH, they look like tomawks from a calf.

Awesome!

Sorry to hear that. Yes the guy could definately run a bar. Didnt know him personally.but he was always welcoming in both bars
