Applied for alien certificate of registration cards after 2 months in the Philippines and was told to come back to the Davao City b1 immigration office after one more month to collect the cards

Im sitting in Shirebrook, Derbyshire. Getting ready for work. And its raining again.

[@mrgrumpy5116]

I know Shirebrook

[@Duppy3737]

Nice fish and chip shop shirebrook , on the main street. 👍

[@alan4x]

that made me chuckle but seriously its really hot here with no rain for nearly 3 months and would love it to pour down right now😁

[@Mirek-S]

@@alan4x You wouldn't want it. Its cold. 8 degrees only. Miserable weather

[@alan4x]

⁠@@Mirek-Syeah I don’t miss the cold but this is the opposite with an average of 37 degrees

[@paulfianatravels]

So happy for you guys ,, that was a nice family clip altogether at the end of video,,,, brilliant

[@alan4x]

cheers Paul, yes a really nice spot for a meal out and opposite you can watch the young kids racing their noisy motorbikes up and down the road🤣

[@outlaw007uk]

you look so happy and free over there bro made up for you guys take care mate

[@alan4x]

thank you Gary, have a smiley day😊

[@chucky2316]

Well done mate on the cards

[@alan4x]

cheers Chucky 😊

[@jarnokarlsson1867]

All the best to you alan and your family. Just month ago came back from phillipines and Oh I miss back. Philippines is a paradise and filipinos gold

[@alan4x]

cheers jarno....good place to retire if you can adjust 😊

[@Andrew-hx6lm]

Alan you truly make me miss my country Philippines. You give me deep warm fuzzy feeling every vid you do over there. Btw Martin Clunes recently did a documentary video of the Philippines on ITV, worth watching!

[@alan4x]

thanks Andrew, yes its totally amazing here...I keep stopping and admiring the scenery and thinking ..am I dreaming lol🤣

[@georgeclarke1183]

been watching your journey Alan i need to find a rich girlfriend in the Philippines who owns a subaru all the women i have talked to are only interested in my money they don't work and have children

[@alan4x]

dating sites are a minefield although there are some really nice genuine women but I would say best to visit the country for a month or two and get a feel for it, you may well meet someone and you would know first hand whether spending more time in that country is for you😊

[@heresjohnny6377]

CHICKEN AND CHIPS 3.30AM ARE LOVELY 😂

[@chucky2316]

I used to try and eat kebab and pizza at that time of the morning in my early 20s 😂😂

[@alan4x]

😁

[@HantsLeo]

Congratulations to both of you, things in the Phils can be so disorganised I don't believe something is going to happen until I actually see it. It seems wherever you go there it's all the same - the traffic, the scenery etc. Well done, you can relax now.

[@alan4x]

your right there, go with the flow and don't expect too much lol, cheers Philip 😊

[@mikeberry304]

The truck near the start of the video Alan , the boss said to the driver 25 more bags on before you go , save another trip 😂😂😂, looks relaxing, the views are lovely 😍

[@alan4x]

lmao, many trucks here are well overloaded with all the workers sitting on top of the load but so interesting to see all the chaos😊

[@finnhogan7889]

Hi Alan Delighted for you and Tyler on getting your cards so Good to see you Happy mate .

I could live in the Philippines since my retirement my biological clock is set on 3am everyday since finishing my continental shifts

[@alan4x]

[@paulfianatravels]

Well done Alan wooohooo

[@eddiejones.redvees]

I looks like you can not get away from the traffic any were you go in the world I have my bus pass witch I use a lot now I just drive to a park and ride and go into Manchester now I am retired and driving all over the place in my job it’s good to let someone else have all the stress I will not miss it in a six days time on holiday the traffic in Jamaica is not all that busy when you get out from Montego Bay the is a road that go’s all around the island which follows the coast where most of the hotels are the drive on the left but the drive like idiots over taking in stupid places why any one hires a car I don’t now me i will be doing so snorkelling and relaxing on the beach with a few drinks 🥤

[@alan4x]

I feel the same now, would rather relax and for the most part let someone else do the driving, have a good one Eddie 😊

[@zzhughesd]

Oh the Cockrells sing over Alconbury Alan

[@alan4x]

🤣

[@vazza7504]

Great to hear your both sorted on the relevant documentation. A lot of anxiety lifted from both your shoulders. 😊😊😊 On a side note, I play a game called 8 ball pool, I friended a lad called Tyler in the Philippines, was wondering if it was your son Alan. Just thinking won't be many Tyler's in the Philippines. 😊 I am called Vazza and belong to Team Colombia. I live in Halewood Liverpool not Colombia. Yep, round the corner from the Jag Factory. Small world, still, would not like to paint it. 😊😊 Godd luck to you all in your new life. 👍👍👍👍

[@alan4x]

hi vazza, I did ask Tyler but he said he used to play 8 ball pool but not since he has been here in the Philippines but thanks for your comment anyway, have a smiley day😊

[@vazza7504]

Sounds Alan, 👍👍👍 you all settling in great, amazing scenery on this vid, those large boxes of Mackeedees fries are boss, made me really hungry watching that sitting there on the table, 😂😂😂 was boss when you got stuck into them, wish they did them over here. 😂😂👍😜👍😎😎😎 Thanks for the vids Alan, keep them coming. 👍👍👍

[@rebeccaroscoe9667]

Hi alan my engine has gone because of the egv valve and I heard you are the man to t Help I am in Australia from the UK and I am at a complete lost please help 😢

[@alan4x]

are you driving a mk5 Mondeo. the egr valves are common to failure...it would take a component mechanic 1 hour to replace it and have it ready to go..easy job but I believe in Australia the biggest problem is getting the replacement part at a sensible price

[@georgeclarke1183]

what the actual cost of a green card is there a set price and is there any concessions for oaps

[@alan4x]

for just me it cost £92.50 for the acr card inc 2 months stay in the country...next month will update on the next cost but do not know if oaps get a cheaper rate

[@Lisa-Andy]

"...half past 3 in the flipping morning" That bloody noisey cockrel best be worth his weight in gold otherwise it's time for the cooking pot.

[@alan4x]

one thing I have noticed over here...where ever you go there is noise🤣

[@Lisa-Andy]

@@alan4x But when the roosters are sounding off at 3:30 & they have woke you up. Have you not honestly thought how delicious they would be in a beautiful rost chicken sunday style diner with proper chicken gravey :) yom yum yum

[@bert-bb3cm]

What is a ACR card????

[@alan4x]

alien certificate of registration ....its a photo ID card to show you are legally in the country

[@bert-bb3cm]

@@alan4x is it necessary for people to stay for 30 days

[@alan4x]

@@bert-bb3cmyou can stay for up to 30 days but if you wish to stay longer you have to go to an immigration office and pay to stay for another 29 days and then you have to apply for acr cards if you want to stay longer

[@dutchmastergeneral]

Alan please learn how to pronounce ‘Davao’ City correctly 🙏🏻

[@alan4x]
