We've found you a driver. We're getting a grab over to SM Malls of Asia. It's the fourth
largest mall in the world and there's 4.1 million square metres. Let me just check.
4.62 million square feet. Wow. Very big. And some more facts for you. It opened in 2006.
It consists of four buildings interconnected by walkways and it features a 20-seater tram
that takes shoppers around to different places. Oh wow. Good fact. We tried to pick a few
bits up at the mall the other day here and failed miserably in buying any of them because
no shopper seemed to sell what we wanted to get. So hopefully in the fourth largest mall
in the world we'll find everything we're looking for today and that includes some trainers.
If you watch the channel you know we love shopping malls in the Philippines and this
is one we've been wanting to come to. This is the one we've been wanting to come to the
most recently. We seem to be on a bit of a shopping mall tour right now because we've
been in cities a lot lately. So when we uploaded the video the other day when we were in Ilo
SM City. Is this us? A load of you were saying, guys, if you think that's big, check out SM
Mall of Asia. This is exactly what we're doing. This is crazy. Thank you. As we were driving
in you see the mall and it is so, so vast and then you actually have to drive right
round past the mall because there's dedicated drop off areas, parking areas and stuff. We
were impressed with the last mall. This is like ridiculous, isn't it? This is the biggest
mall in the Philippines. It's huge. It's the biggest I have ever seen. I'm excited to get
in here. We're actually making it happen list today as well because they're doing some work
at the hotel but we'll be with them later. It's just us today. We're going to grab a
coffee. I'm going to see if there's anything other than Starbucks. Mike's not here to guide
me with the coffee choices. I'm sure there'll be something else than Starbucks. We also
have no idea where we are. We're looking for a few things. We need to ask Mike where that
shoe shop is. That's somewhere near here. We need to find a shoe shop, a camera shop,
kind of have a look around but honestly from the outside this place is massive. I've no
idea how we're actually going to navigate. They're all set up here for Chinese New Year.
There's massive lanterns hanging down and there's big decorations and stuff outside.
It's really cool. There's loads of cars down here. I haven't seen a map yet so I don't
know where anything is. We need a toilet as well and we need coffee. I don't know, should
we just walk in this direction and hope for the best? I think that's the only thing we
can do really. It kind of seems really big but I haven't seen any big groups of people
yet. Everyone's kind of spread out and it seems really open and I guess when we went
in Cebu, SM Seaside was the same so SM City was really busy and loads of people in one
space. Here everyone's kind of spread out more but I'm just going to go to the toilet
so I'm going to stop recording quickly. We're also currently looking for some headphones.
We're editing the vlogs with the tiny little Apple headphones at the moment. So Lucy's
trying out some better ones. One cool thing about this mall is everything you need like
technology wise is in the cyber zone, all in one place. It's crazy. There's a low-profile
camera bag we're looking for. We haven't been successful in finding it yet. It's quite new
isn't it? Yeah. And I don't know, there's been some shops that have it in other malls
here but not the version we want. My headphones squish my ears when I edit so I get like an
ear pain when I edit. We also need a camera house. That's what we need. That was bad the
other day. We went there the other day and they didn't have anything. Not in here though.
This is the biggest mall in the world Lucy. No it's not. Number four. First purchase done.
Extremely exciting. And I bought a pop socket. Jordan's had one on his phone for two years
and I've been like no I don't want one. It's changed your life. But now at least I can
stand things up and watch stuff on my phone. The way to know that you're in a big mall
when you Google a coffee shop on Google Maps and there's directions inside of the mall
on Google. Crazy. Isn't that mad that normally it's just like oh you've arrived because it's
in that complex but it's so big that it's got it's own navigation on Google. Coffee
is very needed this morning. We've all been on the go for nearly a month now. The month
is coming up and every day at the moment we're getting slightly more tired I would say. I'm
alright. Lucy's alright but Lucy's the youngest. I'm feeling a little bit tired. Hi. People
are waving at us. I have no idea where we are. We were looking for coffee. Now we're
on a bridge but this is quite cool. You can kind of see we're outside the mall but still
kind of part of it I think. But there's a road behind and you can kind of start to see
the vastness of this place all the way down there and all the way down there. We're looking
for a place called Pie Face. No idea where it is. Even the guard didn't know. This is
really tricky. We're completely lost. We grabbed a coffee which we could just about do but
we had to go to Starbucks because we couldn't find the coffee shop that I wanted to try.
Now I think we're going back inside. That's not a mall is it? Yeah. Oh. Ok. I think so
I don't know. We're going to try and find some clothes shops. Plan B. I think we've
just walked into a cinema. I have a feeling this is just a cinema. Maybe we can get through
I don't know. It's so confusing. How would you ever find anything in here? How do you
know where you're going if you live here? Seriously like I feel like I could never learn
this. I think we can get out of here. Should we watch a quick film? Or we could just go
to the cinema and watch a film. Yeah I'm up for that. Ok let's do it. Let's go this way.
So after walking around for a couple of hours now and pretty much getting lost like 3 times
I think we both might agree that this mall, that we prefer the slightly smaller malls.
It's huge, it's got everything, whatever you're looking for you can find here other than the
new Lowepro 450 AW2 camera bag. So we've decided to stop for some lunch. We've come into French
bakery or something and we've ordered some chicken and rice. I was just saying that this
mall may be too big for us. Ok so if we were just wandering around and we didn't have anything
to buy it would be fine because we could have, like it doesn't matter, just like float around
and see what we see sort of thing. But because we know we need to pick up a few bits it's
quite stressful because you're like ok we've found that, now we need to find this, where
do we find it? And there's no maps anywhere. We downloaded this app which doesn't really
help. It's just too big. So we didn't expect this to happen today, however I've been getting
so fed up with my hair recently, check this out, that I have just put a poll on Instagram,
we're going to check the results, asking you guys if you think I should get a haircut.
Oh that is mean. Can I tell you what I voted? Look at this, did you vote yes? Yeah. 89%
said yes. So the thing with your hair is that you've been growing it for, let me just, you've
been growing it for like over a year now and you said to me earlier that even if it gets
long you don't want to tie it up, so why, what have you been wasting your time on? The
thing is I thought it would go nice and long like my sister's boyfriend Mike, be all cool,
however it's just going to go out and it's going to look weird so I think it might be
time. Today might be the day. I haven't had a haircut since July 2018, fun fact. Really?
Yeah. So we are on the way to the haircut place, the poll has come in guys, you all
want me to get a haircut so who would I be to go against your word? Some really nice
looking places to eat here actually, we kind of, we were hungry so we chose the first place
we went to but look at this, this looks, this looks really nice, next time. So how are you
feeling, are you nervous? Feeling nervous, haven't had a haircut since July, can't remember
what you do, what you ask for, what you say, what goes on, what happens after it. So we've
come into somewhere now, next to SM and it's like a really fancy mall, there's like loads
of nice shops here and I think it's a good choice for a haircut for George, being the
first one back, it's not like it's a trim is it, this is like a full on head change.
This is a, this is a mission. It is a mission but it's here. Let's go in. Oh it's nice and
busy so hopefully this means it's good. So it's been a long time, the hair is incredibly
long. We're finally getting a Philippines haircut and this is less than £5 as well
so this is, this is incredible. We showed a photo of what my hair used to look like.
Let me get it up, hang on. What we're going for. So this is George a few months ago.
He's almost done, there is so much hair on the floor. All of this is George's but it's
looking pretty good. And the job is done. I'm not going to show you though until we're
back at the hotel because I need to like wash it out, style it, I need to go buy some hair
product to get used to actually doing my hair again. It's so weird seeing the side of your
head in a hat. I know. It is weird. I feel a lot lighter. So that was 300 pesos which
is £4 I think. £4. All we did was show him a photo and he has done an identical job,
an identical thing for the photo we showed. Thank you. Thanks a lot. Thank you.
Okay, just got back to the Manila Marriott Hotel where we're staying. Quick gym workout
and then had a quick shower and we're dressed up now to go for dinner downstairs. George,
the noise you're hearing in the background is a hair dryer. George has just washed his
new fresh cut for the first time and I'm about to reveal it to you. And it looks lovely.
I'm very impressed. It looks really nice, really suits him. And it's weird, it's like
how George looked like a year ago but a bit different. It's weird but I like it a lot.
Can I show you them yet? He can't hear me. Can I show you them? Oh, not yet guys, sorry.
All right, George, you ready? I'm ready. I'm just adding the final touch. Can I open the
door? Who's that handsome chap? Wow. Look at that. Absolutely insane. Looks so good
actually. Turn around, do a full turn. So we've got a nice long bit here that goes back,
head down a bit, head forward. Lovely, neat and sharp fade here. Oh, that looks so good.
Nice. Perfect for dinner at the Marriott tonight which is where we're heading in a second.
Don't want to overdo the spray. Nice that you wore a nice formal shirt. Yeah, wearing
my new nice formal t-shirt. I do like it though. Let me read it. Never doubt yourself guys.
Very true. And I mean that. I bought this to wear in vlogs. I bought this to wear in
vlogs because you should never doubt yourself. Whatever dreams, ambitions, things you want
to achieve, whatever they are, you should go for it 100%. I agree. Block out any negativity,
block out any hate. Like when I got this haircut, there were people who didn't want me to get
the haircut. But you got the haircut because you don't doubt yourself. Exactly. I need
to brush my teeth. Then we're going to go see Mike and Nellie who haven't been in this
vlog yet. I know you're missing them. Look how I'm holding this. And then we are ready
for dinner. Hi. Reunited. We've missed you guys today. Mike was crying the whole time.
He was so sad. Thank you very much. Yeah. Fresh, feeling good. Looks like the barber
cut off some hair in about 20 years. Smells good already.
So we're eating at the Marriott's restaurant tonight and wow. Hello, hello. We just had
a gym session. We were like right, eating back on track. We're going to be healthy.
We're going to be fit. And now I see like hello, hello and chocolate fondue and marshmallows.
Oh, look at this. Hi. George. This looks incredible. We have a little surprise for you. Do you?
We asked them to bring in a guitar. Oh, perfect. Perfect. Now I've had a haircut, they let
me in. Yeah. So the dinner tonight is buffet style and we were here for breakfast this
morning and it was so much selection. I can already see some seafood, Indian food, pasta,
pizza. I fancy an Indian. I fancy an Indian as well. She was a lovely girl. Met her years
ago. Got some delicious looking vegetables in a curry and we all said we need to eat
more vegetables, right? I plan to go up for two main courses and then dessert. Oh, cheers
guys. That was delicious. Thank you very much. Thank you. We are all incredibly full now.
That was very, very delicious. Thanks to the Marriott Hotel in Manila for hooking us up
with that meal and for the two nights that we're staying here, we are enjoying our stay.
This is a lovely, lovely hotel. Recommend having a look if you're staying in the area.
