    Just read this report.

    POLICE are probing the death of a British tourist found with a gunshot wound to his head at a hotel in Cebu City Thursday.

    David Peter Goldsmith, 54, was discovered with a gunshot wound to his right temple in his room at the Cebu View Tourist Inn, said police officer Zenaido Pastorfide.

    A supposed suicide note found at the scene said, "I don't care about anything. I want to die." But there was no sign of a gun, raising questions about the real cause of the shooting, Pastorfide said.



    Not good news as I am visiting there later this month !!!!

    well it could be that he is "Basted" Tagalog term similar to Busted, in other words the girl he went to see has rejected his teasers, and Tuksuhan has ended, or it could be that he was Sawi (romantically sad) or just Labless (loveless) or it could be that he just found out his council tax has gone up !!! thats enough to make you shoot yourself in a Cebu hotel room just to escape the pleasure of paying it.

    Great comment Keith, made both Rhea and me laugh&#33;&#33;&#33; [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

    If you have a moment in Cebu could you ascertain if the Zoo is still in business - It was a rather sad affair


    They had a crocodile with a bent snout - curved like a bend in the road - been kept in its bucket for too long

    only such example you are likely to see &#33;
