Philippines Barrio Fiesta in London!

A friend of mine just telephoned to tell be about a Philippines Barrio Fiesta in Lampton Park, Hounslow, London, on 18-19 July 2009

Ooh! I would love to go and write the 'Philippines Barrio Fiesta in London' story . . . will anyone sponsor me?

This is the 25th Anniversary of the Philippines Barrio Fiesta in London and is the biggest and most widely attended Filipino festival/event in Europe, they expect 80,000 people! That is one whole lot of pork bar-b-que and pancit canton.

Apparently, the Philippines Barrio Fiesta offers the colours, sights and sounds of the Philippines to the United Kingdom and anyone there can can enjoy native cuisine together with Philippine dry goods selections. The Philippine Barrio Fiesta also serves as one-stop-shop for travel deals, banking, real-estate and freight forwarding services to the Philippines from Europe.

Please, please someone sponsor this (almost) penniless writer. Reply here if you are feeling generous and I will give you a special mention in the Philippines Barrio Fiesta in London story.
