Hello Everyone!
I also stumbled accross this site and the reason I did was I needed some guidance on the TOEIC tests! Anyway thats for later.
I met my Filipina well over a year ago now and whilst I was working in Asia she pretty much lived with me for 7 months.
I've been dragged back to London by my employer and we got engaged a few months back, and now I am going through the Fiancee Visa Process with the help of SIAM Legal (Manila Visa).
I have been to Manila (4 times now) where my Fiancee lives met her parents - in fact I came back from there just last Wednesday. Whats frustrating is that I cant afford another trip until she comes to the UK but she is not as educated and certainly didnt study English. She speaks mainly PHENGLISH and I am desperately trying to get her to be clearer in written communication (fb, Blackberry BBM and Skype).
I cant wait for the day we marry and we develop the next chapter of our lives, and I hope I can help people in return for their help.
I am an IT Security Professional but still find this whole process daunting!
I am totally overloaded with stress in my life at the moment - buying a new house/car new job and then trying to help her into the UK!!
Anyway one step at a time and things will work themselves out - but all I think about is that day we can be together.
I will post my questions in another part of the forum.
Cheers
Tone

AKA Taglish (tagalog/english)PHENGLISH
Good luck.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

Hi!
I go down to St.Evenage (posh part I believe!) from time to time as my sister lives there - when my Fiancee comes into the UK we should arrange to meet - would be good to meet some couples who have gone where we are going right now.
Thanks for the welcome!
