      Maybe that was behind the scenes, I don't recall that. The main thing that got him on Paul's bad side was him constantly saying derogatory things about Filipinos. Warned numerous times. Never met him but he was an interesting character. Not many of those left.

      We visited Wombats Womb a few times during construction - Phil was a good bloke Unfortunately, we missed the grand opening by a few weeks when we relocated back to Oz (but donated a few slabs of San Mig Lite for the opening - hope those that attended enjoyed them!!) I seem to remember a member posting a few pics of Phil after he returned to Australia - it looked as though his health had deteriorated so badly that he was totally unrecognisable I thought I did see a follow up post not long after that he had passed on?

      Hi, Jim this is Lynette.  I just realize that you live in Tisa, Labangon.  I have a property there and very helpful nephew name Junie (09321037886 ) who has a car in Lower South Hills area.  If you need any help let me call him.  I already talk to him.  He knows a place where you can buy fresh produce (Carbon price) near Labangon.
