Glasgow trip

by admin on February 17, 2010

Liv had to apply for her indefinite leave to remain visa, to stay in the UK indefinitely, so we went to Glasgow for the day to sort out the visa as well as check out Glasgow.

Have to say we both really liked the city. Has a completely different feel to Edinburgh and who knows, we might live there in the future, but one of Liv’s main ambitions since she moved to the UK has been to go to a teahouse and eat scones and cakes on a stack. Funny that we never found a cafe in England that sold these but Scotland appears to have loads.

As a note about immigration, immigration in this country is a ridiculously slow and expensive process. We had to wait four or five hours for immigration to print off a passport page sized piece of paper which cost us over £1000!!! This for me is fairly disgraceful and shows once again what a rip off the UK is. Go to another country and it costs you maybe £30 to stay (examples are Austria and Taiwan) but here is £1000 !!!!!

 

 

 Something Liv has been desperate to try since moving to the UK is a classic coffee shop stack, the kind where you can have triangle sandwiches and some cakes. She finally had one today!
