Hahaha, I'll take that as a compliment!
Although strangely enough, I did end up having quite a confrontation on my first night in Manila. I was having a few afternoon beers in Cafe Cubana with a random French expat when some drunk as a lord little Italian struck the girl with whom he'd been having an almighty row with. Instinct took over and I ended up holding him by the scruff of the neck until the security guards came and dragged him away. I think he got off quite lightly, I'm sure had it been in Cambodia or Thailand he would have received a good beating from the natives.
