Hi From Andy in Dumaguete - Originally from Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire
Hello everyone, Just a quick intro.
I moved to the Philippines about 5 years ago and don't think I'll be going back to England again. I love everything about the Philippines.
Occasionally, one thing me off here though, foreigners complaining about stuff, they should clearly stay at home.

Hello Andy, I come from Bayawan City if you've heard of it...
Yeah a lot of foreigners complains about stuffs in the Philippines, having high standards of lifestyle I suppose... My husband only complains about the mosquitoes that feeds on him day and night, apart from that, he's alright with most of the stuffs.

Andy, I only came into contact with one foreigner that never complained about Philippines, his name is Canute a retired Norwegian sea captain, you'll find him walking along the Boulevard at Dumaguete every evening at approx. 7.30pm with two German Shepherds and his very beautiful and fit Housekeeper, yes his wife about 50 metres behind him

Enough foreigners come to the UK and moan don't you think?? Enough illegal immigrants come to the UK and moan that they are not treated well or not given the benefits they thought they were going to get. Everyone moans about something, not just a few foreigners in the Philippines.
To be honest, now 'you' are the one moaning about foreigners moaningIf you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up

A friend of mine working in a hotel in Korea said that most of their staffs are scared of British customers as they complained soooo much even for little things..........

Here's me thinking the MAIN thing we Brits moaned about was our weather. And with good reason!
... either it's too cold (like it is at the moment) or it's too hot - which ... ... of course, it seldom is these days.
Reputedly the BIGGEST complainers are the Yanks - definitely, !
