Old Residents

Looking at potential houses to rent in Subic Bay, there was this perfectly preserved snake's skeleton on the door step of one property.

I wonder what it died of?

New Lodgings

I'm back in Iloilo but temporarily living in a different place until I relocate to the next project.

There's no toaster here so I've improvised by using an upturned chip basket!

My Return



The view of Manila from the airport terminal building.

I'm on my way back to Iloilo from the UK. It's going to have taken around 30 hours in all. That includes a 7 hr stop-over in Doha but because it's Ramadan there was no booze available in the lounge. I've had little sleep in that time but feel strangely awake and alert. The merits of having limited access to alcohol perhaps. Or just the delayed onset of jet-lag?

A Fun Guy or Not Much Room


Spotted in the garden. If it's poisonous perhaps I can use it to kill the moles?

Cruel To Be Kind


The garden has mole traps strategically place around it.

Some may think this is cruel but moles can shift a huge amount of earth for their size and wreck havoc in the garden.

I seemed to lost my knack and haven't been able to catch any this time round.

Green Door (What's That Secret You're Keeping)


Freshly painted but no time to do the others. I'd rather be doing other things but trying to get others to do stuff around here in my absence is like trying to get blood from a stone.
