Took a trip early morning to catch the sunrise, unfortunately too much cloud cover, washed the car, ate breakfast and stopped at an auto shop by the roadside to replace the subaru rear brake pads,

Hi Alan. I have watched your channel at Steve's Taxis for a long time. When you left, I thought, that's it, no more Alan. But no, we are now getting to see your new life. We are learning new things through your eyes. Please continue to let us share your new adventure. By the way, I liked seeing the animals especially the Pigs.

Hi Alan, your channel came up in the algorithms somehow. Anyway lovely to meet you. Like you I’ve lived in what used to be a great country 🇬🇧. Now it’s finished, but I see the bigger picture.. Seriously Alan, I’d love to meet a nice Filipino lady, fall in love and move there from this country. It would take time to adjust, but you can’t even buy real food in the uk now, let alone what else is going on. The uk is finished… So happy for you Alan.. ✌🏼

A friend of mine lived in Indonesia for 15 years. I asked him about work and he said in Asia you don't "work" you open a business which apparently makes you more popular with immigration. You know Alan you could open a car repair buisness and have some guys do the graft if you get more settled. Sadly I doubt there are any Ford Turbo diesels in the Philippines. 😂
