    That's the main hurdle overcome. If your family are fine then everything else will be fine.
    I've got three women at home now and they're as thick as thieves. I love the way they get on so well

    I agree, and I must say, we never had any problems in that respect.

    In the UK, nothing. In the UAE, pretty horrendous attention, people staring, had people touching my hair legs and tattoos. In the Philippines, quite a lot of attention, mostly from school girls in mambukal.

    Had one girl in a restaurant ask my wife's permission for a photograph with me, then got shy and didn't come out from the behind the kitchen. Strange one that.

    I found it very annoying at first especially when we are trying to eat, but the Mrs has just convinced me to take it as a compliment although she gets pretty fiery when people stare at her while she's eating, lol.

    Yep...take it as a compliment.

    UAE ? I would expect nothing less from a stone-age culture.

    Almost exclusively from traditional Bengali's and Pakistani's, Emirati people are very modern and friendly.

    In the UK, I don't think people stare at us..maybe I'm just not too bothered to notice it or maybe because my skin color is even whiter than Keith's.. haha

    Now in the Philippines, we do get a lot of stares, mostly Keith. Not because we're together, but because they think he's rich and can afford everything..

    More than likely a potential meal ticket out of ( what must seem like this current moment ) hell.

    I hope you both have a nice relaxing holiday. ..I know how much you've been looking forward to it Rayna.

    Stay safe

    Yes I know that feeling indeed!

    We used to get awful stares in Malaysia the guys there are terrible!
    Over here we get some stares but I just ignore it, and like Steve sometimes I watch from afar and slowly a grin breaks out and I think what a lucky man I am..
