Bloody bureaucracy!

After the whole saga of getting to the High Comm to apply for mini-Scummy's UK citizenship and then finding that they needed stuff they hadn't told me they needed, they now need more stuff!

Apparently we need a Certificate of No Criminal Record from the Singapore police now.

Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrghhhhhh! [smilie=23_3.gif]

What is so bloody annoying is that if I'd given birth to him there would have been no issue. Criminals are obviously allowed to give birth to babies overseas and they get citizenship but not to adopt them.

Let's home Scummy Daddy's speeding ticket isn't an issue ....

You can never be too young to have criminal record checked...surely it's a requirement for mini scummy to fit in in the UK?





Yes, I eventually realised it was for the parents :P

It's ok, Tack, when I first read it I thought they meant no criminal record for mini-scummy too [smilie=rotflmao.gif] When dealing with government bureaucracy not much is surprising unless, of course, it's efficiency :mrgreen:

Actually, he keeps biting me. Does that count as Actual Bodily Harm?

Read Daffs intruders....if there's no evidence or at least complaint of persistent biting then you're making it up in your head, darlin'!

Doesn't sound like he's quite old / strong enough to inflict bodily harm. You've definitely got a good case for battery though
