I’m going on holiday on Sunday, not just any holiday, a nice very expensive diving holiday, to use my newly gained “Padi Open Water Diver” qualification, with a course booked to take me on to “Advanced Open Water Diver”, all diving necessities included etc etc… AND I LOST MY PASSPORT !!!!
Alex, Oliver and Tracey all had their passports, and I thought I knew where mine was, but hadn’t looked to check. With the hectic week we’ve just had, I never thought to look.
Now… it’s gone, can’t find it anywhere, all the places I would have put it if it wasn’t in the normal place didn’t have it. We rang the passport office to find out the details of their “same day” passport service, where you drive to Durham, sit in an office, and eventually, get a passport – Costs a fortune, but it’d be worth it. That service, it turns out, is only available for passport renewals, which I’m not eligible for yet as I have 3ish years left on mine. For Lost/Stolen, which I fall into, their quickest service is 1 week… ARGHHHHHHHHH
So I set about tipping the house upside down, starting with places around the places I’m likely to have put it, all the time receiving a lecture (possibly deserved here) from Tracey. Tracey helped looking in a few places, and eventually, thankfully, has found it; to quote Tracey: “in the box of important looking documents that need sorting out”
So combined with that, I now have half a house to tidy! ARGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
So….. I’m still going to Malta… YAY !
I’ll post some piccies presuming I can steal a wifi connection while I’m over there.
