I'm still having problems with UK financial organisations, Tesco especially, I have decided as soon as I have my new card in my new name I'll trnsfer my balance to a different card provider, yes, this is termed as voting with my feet, and sticking a finger up in Tesco's direction.

Paypal UK are another pain in the ass, they wouldn't accept my Deed Poll which I uploaded to them, they also wanted UK Driving Licence or Passport......Driving Licence is presently in the process of being changed, and I'm waiting for it to be returned in the post. My passport is waiting to be sent off as soon as my Deed Poll certificate is returned from Tesco Bank. ARRRGGGHHHH.

If you going to transition fulltime in the UK expect Frustration...............the process is unnecessarily long, and awkward.

Anyway yesterday I went to our local supermarket with my wife, and I either passed as female or if not nobody said anything or stared, you never can be sure, other UK girls have termed this as "Schrodingers Pass". I am getting more and more used to it with increased exposure.

I took my wonderful wife out last night for a meal, to a bar / restaurant on the edge of Birminghams gay quarter ( I wonder if we'll ever have Trans quarters in the future?) this bar is used by straight people as well as LGB and last night one 1 T (me), anyway we had a great time with excellent food, in fact some of the best I've had anywhere in Europe.

So apart from pain in the ass finacial people I had a good day.
