starting to panic now, I've got so much going on in my life round now that is bad and I'm not coping too well.
One of the things on the list is the ID required for VLM, I dont' drive so I dont' have a photographic driving licence and I've just discovered my passport expired last year. does anyone know if they will still accept an expired passport as ID? I've just lost my benefit payments via ESA without any warning and can't afford to get my passport renewed, before I phone VLM peeps tomorrow does anyone know if they will accept passport if the date has expired?
*frets*

Hi Loon. There is someone on here who had the same problem. He phoned VLM and they said that an expired passport would be OK.
Dave:
Just rang VLM.
My expired passport will be ok.
I would be amazed if they didn't accept it anyway - they only need to know you are who you say you are.
No problem.
Thinking about it, they are not even going to check the date on it. If you had to look at the IDs of x-thousand runners you would wouldn't do more than have a quick glance at the photo.
Anyway, you can stop fretting now!
Hugs on order for you.
See you in the pub after and buy you a Cinzano
My passport expires in September, and I'm going to Barcelona in May.
I know you're supposed to have six months on a pp, is it likely to be a problem? Or should I get it replaced now?
Edit: found out from the FCO - it only needs to be valid for the proposed duration of the stay.
BBH - haha!
not as bad as my OH, he looks like a terrorist on his, I'm surprised we havent been stopped by now. . . . .
