Passport photo

Over the years I’ve had photographs rejected by a broad spectrum of the industry but when turned down this week by Henley Post Office, I felt my career on the slide.

Alex’s passport shot was 2mms. too small, mine had grey lines in the white background. On their advice, we used their instant photo-booth which turned us into Fred and Rose West. Worse still, I looked like Rose and….. no, let’s not go there. They’re fine, said the clerk. So now, immigration will either laugh out loud or ask for the name of our plastic surgeons.

Next day, I submitted the original versions for an Indian visa and wasn’t certain they’d been accepted till the clerk punched a staple between our eyes. Professionally, I feel back on course.
