Roxanne, such a special young lady.

Spare room in my humble abode (near Chester) if you really need a bed -- PM me -- job I can't really help with but I will ask around...

taximan i hope things work out and look forward to meeting you at the bash.

have you no family in the uk? (obv tell me to mind my own business if you like)

Not sure you've thought this out. You are going to get off the plane with nothing, where will you stay? If you are going to relocate you will need a deposit for rent and an address before you find work, without which you cannot raise the deposit.  It's the chicken and egg problem that many homeless on the streets of london face.

Exactly!!! You cannot just get a flight home with £150 in your pocket and hope it all works out!!!

Please sort something out BEFORE you leave...at least make sure you have somewhere to go and you can take it from there.

she is so special that you are flying back to england with no money and no plans rather then staying with this special one and enjoying your love?

Hi Taximan. Your OP was intriguing, tell me to mind my own business if you like but, if you haven't already, would you care to elaborate on your background and experiences in the Phillipines. It sounds like an amazingly philanthropic story! You should start a 'Phillipines & the aftermath' diary imo.

Good luck on your homecoming and hopefully (for you at least) swift return to the Phillipines.

I am thinking about this, my writing ability is not that good, it has been an interesting, eye opening 20 months.

[taximan007]

what were your plans for work/accomodation when you return?

Surely if you went out there for a philanthropic voyage, you should have made sure you had enough for yourself locked away.

I knew I would have to return at some point, made no plans, but thats me!!!!

[taximan007]

Good story.

I worry about things when they happen, always have done. It's just the way I am, must be some sort of masochism.

I lived on the streets for 2 years in my teens, can't say I relish the prospect again, but if thats the case then so be it, maybe one day I will learn, then again probably not.

What do you intend to do when you step off the plane though?   It's going to cost you a fair chunk of whatever you have just to get out of the airport.  Surely you have some destination or objective in mind?

[taximan007]

Interesting post taximan. It's often the case that those who have the least are the most willing to share and help others and really a lesson to us all. Or is it the case that Roxanne has just loaned you the money to ensure you leave 

Anyway not one to see someone homeless I'm more than happy to provide you a roof if you really get stuck. Just let me know.

Roxanne had to ask I don't know how many people before somebody loaned her the money.

Obviously she doesn't want me to leave ( i hope thats the case  ). Her main concern was that if I outstayed my visa, when the time came to finally leave they would refuse me re entry therefore I would not be able to return at all.

Thank you for the offer, and the home game sounds good  I may well be in touch.

Can you not just pop to another local country, renew your visa and come back in?
