| m0nkey_ | After seeing Tom Scott's video on London's Tower Bridge, I'm convinced it was him who broke it .. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-58149716 | 01:16 |
|---|---|---|
| ball | I might have seen that one on twitter earlier | 01:17 |
| m0nkey_ | Rather bad timing lol | 01:28 |
| m0nkey_ | I see mobile providers are starting to re-introduce roaming fees. Soon you'll have a telephone billing equivalent to Canada :) | 01:30 |
| ball | I won't. | 01:31 |
| ball | Well, I will if I move to Canada... | 01:31 |
| m0nkey_ | Can recommend moving to Canada | 01:31 |
| ball | The thought has occurred to me. First step towards that is getting passports so that we can visit. | 01:31 |
| ball | That's far more difficult than it should be. | 01:32 |
| m0nkey_ | Been a while since I had to apply for a UK passport | 01:35 |
| m0nkey_ | Had mine since I was 6 .. I just renew it every 10 years | 01:35 |
| ball | Renewal is difficult when you live overseas though. | 01:36 |
| m0nkey_ | Nope, no more different than renewing in the UK | 01:36 |
| ball | m0nkey_: Well it involves sending documents (and money) across the Atlantic in my case. | 01:37 |
| m0nkey_ | Last renewal I did on-line, all I had to do was send a couple of passport photos along with the confirmation I had to print and my old passport. Took less than 2 weeks. | 01:37 |
| ball | ...and getting them for the children is rough too. | 01:37 |
| m0nkey_ | I got to renew my kids passports for visiting the UK. That'll be a little more complicated now I'm divorced. | 01:39 |
| m0nkey_ | I also need to get a letter from the home office to be able to apply for their UK passportsd | 01:39 |
| ball | Not sure whether mine will need that. | 01:42 |
| ball | Probably cheaper to get them US passports but UK might help for some things. | 01:42 |
| m0nkey_ | I'm going to renew their Canadian and according to the UK passport rules I can get them a UK one too :) | 01:45 |
| ball | Mine should qualify but I hear they're throwing out people who were granted citizenship many years ago, so who knows? | 01:47 |
| ball | Perhaps it's just a waste of money. | 01:47 |
| m0nkey_ | Meh, worth a shot. My kids meet all the criteria. | 01:48 |
| m0nkey_ | I want them to have citizenship, just so I can say a giant f-u to their mother. lol | 01:49 |
| m0nkey_ | Plus I want them to have the opportunity to live/work in the UK if they chose to. | 01:49 |
| ball | That's a good point. | 01:51 |
| ball | My daughter probably shouldn't but my son might. | 01:51 |
| * ball shrugs | 01:51 | |
| ball | I wouldn't have heard the tornado sirens just then if I wasn't taking the bins out. | 02:53 |
| ball | Off to bed, I think. | 03:46 |
| daftykins | mornin' | 10:18 |

| diddledani | besides the roads? | 10:33 |
| daftykins | :D | 10:33 |
| zxm-pi | would have been against brexit too i should think :-P | 10:34 |
| daftykins | hehe, ISP made my builder clients new PPPoE login in my name, i've asked that they change that now | 10:40 |
| diddledani | oops | 10:40 |
| daftykins | they say they're doing the switcheroo on Friday, so i may have to attend to reconfigure things | 11:06 |
| daftykins | been waiting for the fella to throw some cat6 in himself, so i can set up yet another Ubiquiti WiFi AP setup | 11:06 |
