Apr. 7th, 2011 06:10 pmScorchio today - more than once Demelza and Mel said the office should close in this weather to let us all go sunbathing.
Called at Fareham Asda on the way home to get my passport photos for the interview. It's years since I last had them done, and the new-style machine makes for a right palaver. You have to put your face in an on-screen oval to comply with the new passport regulations, and even then I was told my first pose didn't meet the required standard - I had to remove my specs to pass second time. Whenever I pressed 'take photo' on the touchscreen nothing happened for ages, which made me wonder if the machine was working properly. But finally I got my pics, and unlike years' worth of passport photos they actually look passable.
