have you contacted your MP? Not yet. It appears that 6 months has now become the standard time to wait for this? I'll give it 3 more weeks and then will probably try and get things rolling. Not sure calling them helps either - paying for the national rate line to hear a robot read off a screen is a...

I do have respect for them, I mean we all work and we know how naturally stressfull working environment c...

This really isnt a problem, they have other means of confirming!

You know know when you have a problem when you have an actual page missing out of your passport.

Things wear and tear, that is what happens. You know the dates, just put in on your applcation form and leave the rest to them!
