@ChrisMayLA6 My Dad applied in for the emergency document when his brother went into hospital.His brother has died, been cremated, the funeral held...No emergency document, still.I was going to get a passport for me and my kids, but the docs required means the applications would have to be one after the other and take about 3 months. That is assuming it's not considered an emergency and gets processed in the specified time.I suppose we should be relieved that Douglas Adams was wrong: the Vogons didn't destroy the Earth. They just took over the government.
