    SIL and her family arrived from Switzerland last night but FD was not allowed to board the plane as had no Visa and so BIL and DN1 have had to stay in Switzerland with her.

    They've been fighting to get a passport for her for 3 years and only finally got it when her mother died recently but not in time to get a Visa. They were hoping they might be allowed anyway but no. :(

    I worked out without a glitch, if you keep playing spuds each week at 80 points, it will take 6 months to reach £20 voucher :(

    I just cash them in at £5 each time for the Arcadia ones.

    I've been getting 90 points per week for a while - are you printing out a recipe per week?

    Could save you a whole 3 weeks!!!

    Must admit I'm getting a bit tired of digging the spuds over as I'm always missing the first day I can do it so the time creeps longer.

    FD doesn't have Swiss nationality. It is very complicated. Her mother was living in Switzerland as an Angolan but with false papers and her father is unknown. So she actually does not have an official nationality! The Swiss have just granted her an Alien passport following the death of her mother but she needs a Visa to go with it and there just wasn't time before Xmas. Crazy thing is her brother who my SIL has fostered for 6 years does have a Swiss passport because he has a Swiss man named on his birth certificate.
