I think I've fucked up big stylee.... yesterday when going through passport control I put my passport inside my leathers and did them up. it was only today I realised I haven't seen it. it ain't at home which means that I must have dropped it at the petrol station, only they ain't found it. the major problem is that I'm moving to Switzerland on Sunday. Oops. so I now have an appointment at the passport office on Wednesday to grovel. before then I have to grovel to work to get a 'this is a business critical trip' letter and find some nice peeps to sign the relevant paperwork. and then I have to hope they take pity on me, otherwise I wont be moving 'til mid next week. -- Adie Triumph T595 / FZ750 MRO#11 BOTAFOF#7 BOTAFOT#130 DIAABTCOD#17 MIB#24 YTC#16 www.AdrienneMJenn.co.uk email: Adie@<nospam>AdrienneMJenn.co.uk <--- note new address!
You can pay for a same day replacement, ISTR it cost me 90 quidish when I did this at the London passport office.
I rather think the problem is what your lost copy might be used for! watch out for groups of armed Plod. I've done the Eurotunnel in the boot of a car because I inadvertently binned mine. Just go through after midnight!
I have an appointment tomorrow. I'm spending today running round like a loony. -- Adie (replace spam with nickname to reply) Triumph T595 / FZ750 MRO#11 BOTAFOF#7 BOTAFOT#130 DIAABTCOD#17 MIB#24 YTC#16 BOB#15 UKRMMA#22 (pending)

When I read this, I thought it was a post from Cane. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/KH500A8/TS250C/exTS185C _/_____\_ ..58464../..13655.../..3157./.19406/.fecked. |_\_____/_| IMC#4 TPPFATUICG#7 YTC#4 DIAABTCOD#9 PM#5 (>|_|_|<) BOTAFOT #70 two#11 Ignoramus #0001 |__|_|__| BOTAFOF #09 IbW#0 & KotIbW# OSOS#07 \ |^| / WG* BotTOS #6 GP#4 ANORAK#17 \|^|/ 2003 RBR landmarks:99 points:2100 miles:8000 '^'
Once I had to do a pick-up at a new account: a travel agent called Man Around in Kensington Church Street. Midsummer, hot, and I was wearing my full leathers, underkecks, and nowt else. Leathers unzipped almost to the waist. I was a lot slimmer in those days, ahem. Hung around the place, waiting for the tickets I was supposed to collect, clocked the customers who were all a bit, um, mimsy, and were eyeing me up, and the picture of the winsome young lad, stark naked, behind the counter, and the penny dropped with a great clang. Picked up the tickets, headed off, and radioed in. "You know what that place is?" "Nope. New account. What is it?" "A gay travel agency." <fx: roars of laughter from the control room, over the radio> "Well, you must have made a fuckin' good impression, because there's another job just come out of there, and they've asked for you personally...."
Heh, done that three times too and now they're in the washer. -- Adie Triumph T595 / FZ750 MRO#11 BOTAFOF#7 BOTAFOT#130 DIAABTCOD#17 MIB#24 YTC#16 BOB#15 UKRMMA#22 (pending) FTB#6 www.AdrienneMJenn.co.uk email: Adie@<nospam>AdrienneMJenn.co.uk <--- note new address!

Grovelling worked. New passport acquired. *Phew* now all I need to do is work out what I did with the tickets. -- Adie Triumph T595 / FZ750 MRO#11 BOTAFOF#7 BOTAFOT#130 DIAABTCOD#17 MIB#24 YTC#16 BOB#15 UKRMMA#22 (pending) FTB#6 www.AdrienneMJenn.co.uk email: Adie@<nospam>AdrienneMJenn.co.uk <--- note new address!
I did call round to help. I got to rub my hands all over her leathers ;-) -- Tim two#21, YGL#3 & BOTAFOT#84 Due to the limitations of current email, the lip movements may be out of synchronisation as you move your finger under the text while reading. tim dot ukrm at dsl dot pipex dot com
