Purpose of Visit

Back down to the Mexican consulate today in my titanic struggle for a visa. Maybe I shouldn't have put: "To pick up a consignment of snow" under Purpose of Visit on the application form.

Never ceases to amaze me that the further down the third world ladder a country is the harder it is to obtain a visa.

It was almost imposible to get one for Nigeria, Algeria required you to have two passports because it took so long to get a visa, and India makes you feel like a piece of crap when you go to pick the visa up
Ho hum

Pakistan insisted I go for an interview so I told them I didn't want to visit their effing country anyway and cancelled my trip.

Fumier is quite correct the lack of brain cells in the English swarming across the border is quite striking. I will never forget the English prat who came into our office in Llandrindod Wells and complained about the road signs being in Welsh.
