FOAK: urgent passport

That's really good.

Actually, I typed that post wrong. I had a late afternoon appointment,
and got it the next morning.

After the doom and gloom BS the bloke in London told me, I was well
pleased.

All the best,
Tom

I was banging on the door at 9 in the morning at Peterborough and was
fortunate enough to be the next one in line to the mouthy bird who was
determined to have a row and after making sympathetic noises to the
bloke behind the counter found myself through the 4 or 5 processes they
have and back out before lunch. The mouthy bird still hadn't completed
stage one.

 

The black geezer in the Dog and Duck, get you one for 50 squids in a jiffy.

 

Right, ive given the passport office a sob story about going to a
funeral and will be in london 8am tomorrow I hate doing it, but its
better than death via frau.

However I have also just phoned BA and they tell me I dont need one to
leave, only to get back, but even then it would be a short process of
form filling at customs... so either way Im buggering off, cheers all

 

Errr, officially you do. Don't forget that the UK hasn't signed up to
the Schengen agreement.

Besides, it's getting back into the UK that may be a problem, as they
do check for ID.

He could always borrow the expired passport of some 12 yo girl, I
suppose.

 

No. Give us a clue.
