Well I had the interview for my British passport yesterday (I was really anxious & nervous for some reason?!) -- so just waiting on the thing to turn up in the post -- hopefully it'll be this week.  And so then, as soon as it does - I'M DONE!  No more British immigration, paperwork, etc etc...ever!  (until it's time to renew the passport, but after all the other stuff, that should be a breeze & it's years away in any case)

the relief when the maroon passport is finally in your hands is enormous! :D

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in...

An amble through a park and a pub lunch. A good pub lunch.
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say
"Thank you for being a friend!"
