    Passports

    To enter and leave this little place I require photographic ID.

    Normally I use my passport. My darling three sons use their passports as they often fly across unaccompanied.

    Passports are due to be renewed very soon and to be honest I don't want to pay the fee's.
    HM Forces have decreed that NI is not overseas so husband can't claim anything....I have tried :?

    Anybody got a cheaper "legal" way for us to enter and exit Northern Ireland?

    Driving licence, new type only with photograph.

    It's the airline's regulation, ask them.

    I don't drive!
    Nor do my sons!!

    Airlines and Ferry company state photographic ID.

    Probably not the best suggestion in the world as its NI, but what about your Mil ID card?

    Ryanair accept passport or Identity cards....grrrr...I knew these 1p flights weren't THAT good a bargain!

    MOD state that when my cherubs use SVC flights they must have valid passports.

    I shall harrass G1 peeps a tad further. They love me.

    Sloosy....military ID not accepted.....madness I tell ye madness!

    I know a man who can get you a passport for £50. You might have to change your name to geretti lubychezki and pretend to be polish though.

    No I am only kidding. I hope you don't get stuck there. Have you got enough time to get a passport or an id card?
    Obviously a quicky passport costs a whole lot more than a regular one.
