I've worked for the Stockport Mdec for the last couple of Christmas's, in the past they've got in touch around November time and then actually started the job around about the last week of November.

Just booked the registration day for Xmas casual work. I have a passport but it expired in April. This won't be accepted will it? I have my birth certificate but its the smaller one, never actually had one larger. Is this okay do you think?

Sorry just installed the program to view the email attachments, and it says passport current or expired. So all good there, have a driving license anyway.

I used my driving licence plus counterpart document as I do not have passport I also used my birth certificate which needs your Father and Mother name on it.

All the best

I'm taking the letter and my driving licence.

Hopefully my pass is there, but we'll see what happens...
