Another Cutty moment

We always get text reminders about our engagements from our choir manager. For our singing engagement last night, it read:

TMW, 15Dec Caroling: CT/Rehearsal 8PM, casa de ARCH. Gerry EXXXXXXX....

When I approached the guardhouse to ask for directions, I asked, "San papunta kina Fr. Exxxxxxx?"

The guard said, "Ma'am, kanan po tapos pangatlong bahay sa kanto."

I got to the house with no problem.

Once settled inside the house with the rest of the choir, I noticed that there was a bubbly guy talking to the group. I assumed that he was our host for the night. I asked the person beside me, "Siya ba si Archbishop Exxxxx?"

Aba eh, tinawanan lang ako. Di pala siya Archbishop. Architect pala siya. Ganda! Kaya pala maganda pagkakagawa ng bahay niya.

If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
