I got up at 5 am, today... just to catch the British Consul in Cebu in her office.

And I bloody well did &#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

Guess what.............??

WE DON&#39;T NEED TO GO TO MANILA FOR THE CNI &#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

It can be done on the day in Cebu Consular Offices . All you need to do is phone for an
appointment.

The phone number on the link is kosher, the e-mail addy is the old one, it hasn&#39;t been updated yet, to the annoyance of the person I spoke to.

I like it. Saves me from having to go to manila and waste time and money.

Thats good news mate, saves a lot of hassle of going to Manila. Nil points to the Embassy website for having the wrong email address, but thats no surprise. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img]

If I had known this info 2 years ago when Elsa and I married, I would have also gone to Cebu rather than fart around with Manila taxi drivers and unhelpful Embassy staff. Jeez, I still recall how it took us 2 taxis and a police car to get us to the Embassy to get the Legal Capacity - 1 taxi driver took us to god knows where in Manila (looked like some dodgy area), the other took us to the OLD British Embassy. Luckily, a nearby police patrol kindly took us to Locsin Towers. Manila taxi drivers = scum of the earth. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cwm23.gif[/img]
