Nose deep into srs bizns

I still think it's a very very bad idea to give her a driving license!

But she's already got one John.

Yes, but that was Hungarian. This is going to be British! Does left side driving tell you anything? I surely won't set my foot on the streets once she starts to drive here.

They were talking about getting some driving lessons, didn't they? I think it should be fine.

Also, she said they need to license for the bank account what I don't really understand. Why do you need to drive to be able to put your money into the bank?

You can have a gas bill too, hehehe, but sure they don't have one! Why would they? If you have just arrived to London you can't open a bank account! You need to prove your address with a driving licence. Or a gas bill. Guys maybe we could forge some gas bills and sell them on the black market for the new arrivals?

Anyway I'm really happy the DVLA actually got her documents and even sent back her ID card so fast, just in 4 days.


And she has already enrolled to that CIMA thing too...

Yeah, another risky action on her side. She as a qualified accountant..hahaha I don't see that happening any time soon.

Why? She's qualified in Hungary..

Yes m'dear but this is England...

And luckily lot of things are easier here than back home. And some others are way more complicated. I kind of like this informal system they use here for ID and authentication. It's based on trust and trust is a good thing.

Until you get betrayed of course.

Look at the bright side: they accept her translation as certified as long as someone else signed it, stating that is the truthful version of the original. You couldn't really pull that off in Hungary, could you?


Naaah, there you need a couple of stamps, seals, fancy translation by a state monopoly and pay loaaaads of HUF for it.

Ok guys, you go back to the transcripts translation.


I'll help her find a room. I'm already so excited about the Sunday-Monday trip to Bristol. Ayayayayy so many things can go wrong.



Lina, you better get a nice, warm and sunny one, with a pool. And palm trees. And half naked Princess Renis.

Pfff John, dream on. You'll have to be happy with internet in the room and normal flatmates. Oh geez, what if one of them is a pervert? Or a serial killer? This won't be easy, won't be easy at all.
