Thanks for posting that link, formakaschic! I hadn't thought about this, and am forwarding the link to my husband who also lives in "sunny" Glasgow.

You can, but don't count on it because the machines are usually out of order, so don't wait until getting to the embassy for your photos! Get them done before hand, the last thing you want is to be running around trying to get your photos.

Visa Journey completed, but we are still here to provide support! :)
