Do they think they are Yanks or what, Its a bloody holiday visa:rolleyes:.
I have only ever had to go for 1 interview with any of my work visas that was for the states.

Just work it back from when you always come home. Yes the arrival date shouldn't matter if they put a start date. As you say changing a ferry is easy:).

Good luck with it, thing is it seems all EU countries arent working by the same hymn sheet at the moment;).

Acksherlly I have a feeling the whole Schengen region is marching to the same tune as once we've got it it will be valid all over that area.
Yes, they are modelling it on the Merkin version, including the biometrics, which we are a bit worried about as the wife doesn't have fingerprints that scan, or are even very visible. When she went to Merca on business she held up the queue for ages until some bloke, two levels of seniority up, came down and told them to accept her iris scan.
I don't know how long your work visas were for. This is for 6 month, long-stay holiday visa.
You'd think they would do it differently for those who can prove they own property over there, but no, they don't seem to make much of that, except possibly slightly less of a requirement in the financial dept.
And as you say, "Just work it back from when you want to come home".
Problem being I'd quite like to stay till the end of October, but if we went over 6 months ahead of that apparently her gardening would be "off".:rolleyes:. I pointed out that as we qwould be unlikely to get over there for quite a while due to Covid anyway, it would make sense to come back in October, but I had then to go and get my tin hat, and my flak jacket.
You know that feeling you get when you know you are going to start a row, no matter how gently you try to approach a subject?
Well I had that feeling in Spades! No! No Trumps!:(:(:(
 
I wonder how many of us have inherited tools from parents or grandparents?
I never did. Well not from my pa.
He was useless in mechanics, electrics and wood work. good interior designer and decorator though.
Eventually inherited a dovetail saw from one grandpa, and nothing from tother, although both of them were very mechanical being ship's engineers and one of them designed and built two wooden framed "bungalows".
Have other mates who've inherited tons and were given tons of tools as kids.
Inherited my ma's electric singer sewing machine, which I would have used to sew up soft-tops and tonneau covers , if my ex hadn't insisted on taking it when she went.:rolleyes::mad:
She never used it and left it in her ex-boyfriend's place when she left him. Double grrr!
Still, my family buy me tools every Christmas and burfday so I can't complain!:):):)

So what about the rest of us?
Do tell!;):)

My dad wont let me in his garage unsupervised, especially if we came by car:D.
Last time I left with a Bosch FSA560 and all the accessory plastic suitcase things:D. and a few other little bits, he did give as he was having a new garage built. But I know he has loads of other goodies hidden in there:), Loads of which are probably in "old Holborn" tins. And that drawer thing with all those little metal draws in full of goodies:).

Not having a good day!
The place we normally stay in in the Dales at Christmas has prolly already been booked, we were a day late trying, for Xmas '22.
Altho we will have first dibs if the peeps who want to book all three places there decide they don't want the ickle place we want. Places going like hot cakes. She said we were one of three enquiries for the same week in the last 24 hours.:rolleyes:
Still, had a nice bacon and mushroom sarnie for lunch!:):):)

Think I looked at Jaycotts, the name rings a bell, and some were simply out of stock. But can't be sure.
Thanks for the tip!:):)
I'll pass the name on altho she doesn't seem to think it'll be a problem finding one.:rolleyes:
