    She's smart enough to realise that it is after midnight where she is, so when you mentioned tomorrow she said this is Friday so tomorrow is Saturday :)

    She took probably your prompt from the word 'tomorrow' literally, you meant phone the lawyer on Friday and yes she will be awake :D

    The perils of talking to Filipina ladies :rolleyes::lol:

    I'm a programmer, everything she said is perfectly logical ;) :D

    When I flew back from the Philippines on New Year's Eve, we arrived at Schipol and one lady approached a stewardess and said she had lost her passport during the stop at Taipei. We had landed at Schipol around breakfast time and the stewardess said they could not call Taipei Airport as it was closed for the night! I had to point out to her that Taipei was 7 hours ahead, not 7 hours behind!!
