Thanks a lot for all the help so far. Really appreciated! As if by coincidence the visa application was returned today, with the visa being denied. Neither of us are working. I have been living off of savings, and I asked my wife to quit her job shortly after I arrived here. This point was one of t...

The results are in… The bold man was correct, I do not exist and therefore my wife (who isn’t married to me anyway) needs a Schengen visa before travelling. As she didn’t have a visa they were right in deporting her. What an outrageous ruling Tobbe. Certainly justice denied. Sorry Tobbe. It s...

Re: the Gards messed with the wrong rich kid

Seems the INIS have made a heck of a mess for Failte Ireland. I normally would not feel sorry for these guys...especially Colin Zwirko as he is the son of a prominent media person, Walt Zwirko, back in my home town. I think its great though because it made the INIS look like the shit heads they are...

Re: UK Travel - resign or leave

If you've got a job then the last thing you should do is resign as the job market here right now is awful. You could always take a 2 week holiday from work and come to the UK and whilst here just look for jobs. That way you'll have a better idea about what is and isn't available here, sign up to so...
