they must have known the rules changed after brexit. Not necessarily. A lot of people made the mistake of assuming any changes would be reasonable and logical. |

It's been an expensive way to find out your wife cannot just return to the UK with you.

There was no mention of why the visa was going to cost £11K which would have helped, now that this has hit the mainstream media things might well change for them.

Doesn't surprise me at all. We got married in France, an event that should have happened decades ago (don't ask). If we had been French the whole thing would have cost nothing. It was only the UK that screwed money out of us for paperwork via the UK embassy. You also get 10 marriage certificates signed by the mairesse, very useful for insurance/banks/pensions notification.

Off topic but I notice my neighbour calls her GP a 'doctoresse'. Is this common practice? |

Off topic but I notice my neighbour calls her GP a 'doctoresse'. Is this common practice? Certainly not around here? And to add that I've only ever heard female maires addressed as Mme le maire. |

From previous ink
Contributors to the research output of the ERG have included Daniel Hannan and Mark Reckless
who wrote a paper 'The Euro: bad for business' and Hannan acted as the ERG's first secretary in 1993 according to The Guardian.
I feel that song coming on

It’s raining datsun cogs. The workers of the north-east wouldn’t see the funny side of that. Reckless by name. Somebody is speaking with a forked tongue Brown be blowed, Wikki claims that they were hazel-blue on the one hand, on the other it states that they were 115DA8 blue. the Baron Knights were closer to the Mark. I think that she was probably egged on by www.britannica.com/topic/Dennis-the-Menace-comic-strip-character. ‘ bad for business'but good for the bankers. |
