    Yeah thats what I took with me. I didn't take the same photo that was on my passport (my passport is from like 5 years ago), just got another one done at the photo booth at Morrisons.

    To be honest, in my experience, what they ask for is really just what has been asked of me by any prospective employer.
    Cheers, I was starting to scramble about looking for that same photo that I used for my passport

    I would have thought a passport would have been enough though, I've never been asked for anything more than that at any interviews. Although they've probably put up the checks since this guy years ago, pretended he was younger than he was, went back to his old school, sat all his highers, got into glasgow to do medicine, and only got caught after his first year, when he was on holiday and someone noticed that he had two passports Shame that he got chucked out though, even though he lied he was still good enough to get a place

    It's a strange place where the people support a terrible team called St Mirren. Not the most appealing place in Scotland, it has to be said, although there are far worse places.

    Where do you think the Paisley pattern on your shirt originated?

    Haha it's only light-hearted banter my friend. St Mirren are relegation fodder, if only you had a team such as the mighty Motherwell to support
