Professional Persons
I’m in the process of applying for a new passport, having put mine in the wash (don’t laugh, it’s easy to do).
In the process of filling out the two forms to get a replacement I noticed that you have to get the form countersigned by “a professional person or a person of standing in the community (for example bank or building society officials, police officers, civil servants…etc)”
Bankers… they’re kidding, right?
