Cruising around the windy, bumpy and crowded streets of Manila in a black 10-seater, V12 Ford E-Series Wagon is about as appropriate as going Chanukah shopping in the Bakara market, Mogadishu.
A vehicle that large would be inappropriate on Australia's wide roads designed to support a population 5 times smaller; characterising the E-Series as 'serving no practical purpose' would be an understatement.
It seems members of the Filipino music industry think otherwise.
As my beloved and I were ferried around by her manager's driver-cum-bodyguard from one recording studio to another in this gigantum vehicle that required a 3 point turn every time it enters a new street, I took the opportunity to relax, stretch out my legs and enjoy my new favourite game show 'Eat Bulaga' (www.eatbulaga.tv) starring Vic Soto on the headrest monitor.
