Renewing my driving license:
Me: Hello, I need to renew my driving licence
Her: OK, address? eye colour? hair colour etc?
Me: Normal answers
Her: Can you provide proof of citizenship?
Me: I'll come back tomorrow, I wasn't told i needed it.
Next day
Me: Hello, different lady, I need to renew my driving licence
Her: OK, address? eye colour? hair colour etc?
Me: Normal answers
Her: Can you provide proof of citizenship?
Me: Yes, I have my American passport (Hands it over)
Her: Do you have anything else?
Me: Yes, They gave me a certificate that I am not allowed to copy , so I keep it in a fireproof safe.
Her: Could you bring it here for me to see?
Me: Well, yes i could, but I don't want to. You have my passport there.
Her: Oh, OK then. I suppose that will be OK.
Me: Thank you
Her: (Various questions about drug/alcohol dependency)
Me: No.
Her: Have you ever met the Queen?
Me: No.
Her: Have you ever seen her?
Me: No. If I were ever in a situation where i might see her, i would run the other way.
Her: Are you subject to fits, seizures, blah blah blah
Me: No
Her. Have you ever met Princess Dianna?
Me: No, those are not my kind of people.
Her: Do you wear glasses or contact lenses when you drive
Me: No.....(Jokingly) I seem to be answering no a lot. I feel like I am maybe underachieving in my life.
Her: Have you ever met Hugh Grant?
Me: No.....er why?
Her: Well, you sound a lot like him. I thought you might be from the same area
Me: This is my posh voice that I use for talking to strangers so they can understand me. When I use my real accent i sound more like Benny Hill
Her: OK, Sign your name here please.
Me: (Signs document)
Her: Have you ever met Benny Hill then?
Don't get me wrong, we had a good laugh generally, and in the end I had a very smiley photo for my licence, but come on!!!! This is the 21st fricking century, The world is smaller, but not THAT bloody small!
