Police Certificate Request Finally In The System

[AFQuaid 18]

So today we got the Subject Access forms back from my social worker who signed them for us in the mail after waiting just a week. We downloaded these forms of the net after somebody kindly linked us to the Greater Manchester branch for this form. But after we had sent them to my social worker to sign a package comes in the mail from when I mailed the local police station 2 months ago requesting the forms! DOH!!!!! So anyway we look over them,compare them and they're the same so we thought right ok....no need to redo them. So my dad kindly goes down to the police station with my passport for ID and the signed (downloaded version). Waited in line and when he got to the front desk explained he was handing them over on my behalf as it was difficult for me to get there etc... She just looks at him and snaps back at him "Wheres the rest of the forms?"....my dad was like "You mean the instructions on filling them in?" she said yes.... we figured that was for us not them....but apparently they're needed. She disappeared in the backroom and then my dad noticed in the rush for the bus to the police station he picked up my mums passport not mine ...total disaster. So he rang my brother from the public phone box to ask him to bring mine along with the "instruction" forms. My brother took a taxi to the police station and gave him that AND my birth certificate (because I noticed it was TWO pieces of ID they needed but she didn't say). My brother then forgot to pick up the instruction forms.....and was going out so couldn't come back to get them. So my dad (poor guy I feel awful ) had to come back to the house and pick them up and take them back down and wait in line again. Then all she did was compare the package they sent to the downloaded subject access forms and hand him the friggin package back. Spending £25 on taxi fares isn't good. Then then told him if these downloaded forms are not right (yet the link I got them from was from the manchester police website) they'd have to send them back and they'd be delayed......plus that is going to take 40 days to process this. Well we already knew that.

At least that parts over I guess....dad didn't get his dinner till 8pm because of all this
