There is a sign in immigration which says you have to show your return ticket upon entering the country. Didn't ask me for mine.....but who knows? This has been discussed on the forum previously.

Be careful about that it's dangerous to play Russian roulette. The trouble is not immigration it's you leave to go the Phils. In BKK, Cebu pacific refused to let me embark unless I bought a return ticket. I had to struggle to find a wifi to book a cheapo Clark. Macau for 2, 000 pesos which I never used.

Airlines gets fined by Phils authorities if they let you enter the country without a return ticket.

Hi

I'm due to arrive in Manila on Friday from Bangkok. Because I don't know when I'll be returning I only bought a one-way ticket. It's now just occured to me that maybe that's going to be a problem at PH immigation. I have a return flight booked from BKK to Europe at the end of October.

Any thoughts from the PH experts?

KY is easy to find but try finding a girl in PI that will do ANAL now that is not easy, your best bet is go to Thailand for that.

But judging by some of the pictures in the gallery, seems not. But me too have to agree with you.

For those situations in many Asian countries where the shop assistants shadow you, you ask them if they have Pseudopharmacon - usually they go off to the pharmacist and there is much looking up of books of lists of medicines. There is, of course, no such thing as Pseudopharmacon - it just means "false or pseudo-medicine" in ancient Greek (most medical terms come from ancient Greek).

Have to remember that, when I get harassed by a service staff.

Thanks mate

Maybe he got flustered by the ever helpful filipino staff ... if there is one thing I hate in Philippines - it is the constant service offered by the service staff, which is considered good by most, but, even when you tell them you don't need .. they keep following you until you either give up or tell them that you haven't made up your mind :( :(

It happened to me when I was picking condoms, and it was more than a bit embarassing when the girl insisted on suggesting some brands .. :( it is a different matter that I ended up picking her phone number, but left without condoms .. as she was more than open enough to tell me that she is 'clean' and condom is for the 'dirty' girls.

Long life the Church !! :D :D

As the other poster mentioned, I got KY in a tube from a pharmacy. They probably all have it, just ask for lube or KY maybe.

Key Master,

Is it possible to buy smartbuddy (or globe) pre paid Micro SIM card for the Iphone 4?

I jailbreaked it and ran snow whatever thinggie, so it should accept the philippine SIM.

I guess I should go to the smart office in Robinson.

But what are the prices, and how can I buy 3G credit so I can get my emails and stuff without having to worry about trafic and RIP OFF roaming at 10 EUROS per MB.

Thanks

I just did a quick check of 3 pharmacies/boticas in Manila - 2 in Ortigas (Mercury Drug and Watsons) and 1 in Makati (Watsons).

All had KY gel in tubes on the shelf. All had a great array of condoms of all brands and colors and flavors. All had the small sachets of flavored gel in the display next to the condoms.

You never looked hard enough Goferring. Were you too embarrassed to ask a shop assistant lol?

Is lube available in the Philippines? If so where from? Is it called something wierd over here that I am not recognising?

I don't use toys, but when I go for a 3-holer,
my choice is baby-oil.

Cheers!

Another option is coconut oil, which is the standard cooking oil used in the Philippines. Not recommended with latex condoms, however, since it may degrade the latex.

That will eat a condom, if it matters. Should have KY in drugstores. Medical presentation, but the same stuff. Goferring, I have some spare lube with me if you need some...

Why does does that not surprise me David :D

You can get in most pharmacies but never really seen the flavoured stuff, although at times (rarely) have seen the Durex cherry stuff ...not my flavour but then I dont taste it ;) Girls seem to like it....

You know I always fly CP...because there are 18 year old amateurs in the crew :) :D

It is a good airline and cheaper than PAL and you know how many miles I fly

But then again you think bangers and mash is not cuisine while I do ..especially when topped off with ketchup :D

But I do agree Jollibee is something that is purely disgusting.....

Maybe you are pretty right, because Cebu Pac has the highest number of freshers - maybe because they get paid less to build hours ?? :confused:

And it is not surprising to see both right and left seaters below 30 !!!

As for the professionalism of PAL, well, Cebu Pac never compromised on Safety, and so is PAL, and Cebu Pac does have one of the youngest fleets.
