I would have punched him.
Have also just realised that when they prized open my desk they stole my passport. Cunts.

Oh that really is the height of cuntitude.
Still reckon it's contractor-laptop guy or just a really unpleasant coincidence?

Much as I would like to blame him I expect it is coincidence
Just had to cancel a business meeting in Holland on Tuesday. Quickest you can get a replacement for a stolen one is one week.

If you are in London
you can do it in a day, even for a stolen one, I think. Unless the rules have changed drastically in the last couple of years. It will take all day though, you have to go to the London office in St James' for interview.

This is correct. Lot of queueing involved, though.

It's a week - the gf has checked.

yeah, it does seem to say that.
I have actually done it though, and in fact done it for someone else's passport (the ex-wifes after the cleaner nicked it) so it might be worth actually calling the passport office in St James direct to double-check? (unless that's what your doris has already done of course)
