Deranged chicken

Back from Luzon & Mindoro
Some work on da house (ceiling, glass, locks)
3 families living there, a 2week old baby (Ann's 2nd, the father a Brit)
The boys are both walking Yasi & Takeshi (Korean & Japanese fathers)
The house has 2nd story narrow terraces on the South & West,
great for clothes-drying and sunset cones.
Views of a valley full of Banana trees
A Toad keeps the bathroom Ipis free (ie no cockroaches)
Bats,moths, a solitary firefly

Down to Mindoro, the beach, Snorkling,
saw my first 'cleaning station' with fish lined up to be cleaned.

A Philippine love story:
One of the 2003 "Oakwood mutineers"
(so named because they managfed to take over a Makati hotel of that name, rather than the entire country)
who escaped in December...
Marine Capt. Nicanor Faeldon, was arrested on Malebon Friday
"agents helped by the scent of his woman" (?)
His girlfriend Capt "Candy" Candelaria Rivas is a military prosecutor with TJAG of AFP
IntelServ ISAFP tracking Rivas 44 days on the run, because they suspect her of having an affair with Capt NF.
Faeldon was disguised as a woman, but gave himself away when he kissed 'Candy' on the mouth

'a simple glance' Their love affair began in Camp Aguinaldo:
Nag umpisa lang yan sa patingin-tingin, tapos nauri sa kaunting kuwentuhan (started witha a casual glance, talk, then developed into a love affair)
