    Passport office visited on Wednesday. Passport delivered today. Now that's what I call service.

    Great service indeed :grin:

    Given that you've paid just over £100 for a small booklet with 32 *blank* pages in it, it just shows just how far our glorious government have depressed people's expectations.

    I'd expect it delivered between the thighs of vestal virgins for that money... :eek:

    Never mind that ..I have a social life conundrum. Oh Gawd!!!
    It appears I have accepted invitations to a wedding and for a day out on a canal boat on the same day.

    Not just any 32 page booklet. This one has a picture of a rather gorgeous woman in it!

    You really have to go to the wedding don't you but canal boat would probably be much more fun:D

    The wedding is an evening do of someone from the sign language class.
    The canal boat thing is with the friends I've known since I moved down here.
    The man of my dreams could be at the wedding....a lot of people I will never see again and don't know will also be.
    The wedding will be once...the canal boat could be again next year.
    Does that help?
