Ghost of Chyna

When I came back this lunchtime, I noticed a thick letter awaiting on the doormat. At first I thought it was junk mail but realise it was my pasport! I thought, "That was quick, I only sent it off last Thursday and now it's next Friday!"

But then I was horrified when I saw my photo! My face has a tinge of blue in it, and I immediately thought I looked like a ghost! And the passport has changed too, it has a chip on the otherside of the photo page. Wonder what it's for!

Least I can go out and buy alkiehol again. It wasn't long ago I tried to buy some Hoegaarden and the woman at the counter asked for I.D. which I left at home by mistake and I was offended as I usually don't get asked! I won't be saying that in a couple of years time! :))

the chip is a sim card for your mobile phone.Just cut it from the passport and insert in your mobile phone.

    'Sim card' like it.
    
    Chipping is bad enough, they now 'scan' you back into the country, so they've got a copy of your passport and everything.
    
    I've never been ID'd; strange but true, even while buying beers at 15!
    
    And while entering Poland this month, I was asked to provide additional ID as my 10-year-old passport photo didn't look like me at all!

      LOL. Nice story.
      
      I wish I looked older than I was because it can be embarassing and annoying trying to buy alcohol and such.
