    To be fair, i wouldn't dig on him too much for not having a passport.

    Venturing outside corkonia is a pretty major step.

    Probably gonna be in Limerick for the next four years if the leaving cert results go as planned so yeah thats one step towards :P ah but na I've been to Spain twice its just the passport expired two years ago so I just haven't needed it since hence I why I don't have a valid one now

    And for the others, if ye read back a bit you'd see that the work id worked fine.

    Thats why I think they should close this now. Unnecessary stuff like but ah sure what harm!!

    They are accepted by the gardai for the age card, you would hope that they at least could spot a fake :eek:

    Well obviously you wouldn't bring in a driving license with your picture but a different name and dob into the guards as proof of id for the age card. What I'm talking about is for pubs and nightclubs. Not that I should be saying this but all you have to do is get someones license whos over 18, carefully rip out their picture and put in yours and re laminate it and you've a strong looking id right there. But thats all stopped now. I know a few people from my year in school who couldn't get in with their license eventhough it was actually their license and they were 18. Even passports are getting sketchy. I know plenty ppl who've altered their own ones with a sticker flap which is highly dangerous but works so well and all you have to do when you don't need it no more is rip out the plastic flap which was only an "accessory" in the first place so nobody would know any different in the future. Whereas it's near impossible to forge and age card. Thats why most places only accept it or else passport plus another form of photo id....just sayin' :P

Believe me I had one myself and it worked everywhere when I was 17 but one night it was taken off me because the bouncer knew of me and knew I was underage and took it off me. Still let me into the club though that night :D but thats all stopped now.

    It's all fun and games til you try to go to America with your bogey passport and get detained in Cuba as a terrorist.

    I think you completely missed the point of my post!!!

    Someone said you could drive to Europe. I said if he had a driving license he wouldn't be worrying about ID - as in ID to get your age card. Ya know.

    My sincerest apologies :O :) oh great I've just made a fool of myself whilst announcing for everyone of my sketchy encounters as a 17 year old :L but yes based on that now I totally agree. I'm currently learning the theory anyway so hopefully before college I'll have the provisional anyway!

    Must edit my last post a little I thinks ha
