It is now basically a certainty that I will not be able to go to the BDO Torremolinos Open! Possibly just possibly I might be able to take 1 day off to defend my pairs title for the 3rd year running. When I get my schedule and flights sorted I will no for sure.
Something has turned up and I have all my holiday leave booked for that (I am getting married). A once in a lifetime thing and I need all my work leave to travel to Colombia to get married.
I would have had the days if Gibraltar would have the correct marriage legislation in place and I would be able to pick up something called a Certificate of No Impediment in Gibraltar and I take that to Colombia. This certificate together with my birth certificate allows me to freely marry in Colombia.
As things stand Gibraltar has stopped producing these certificates and the Cheif Minister has to approve it and its on his desk, so God only knows how long that could take and I am not waiting on his decision although he should be made aware that by delaying the passing of that legislation that we are being dictated who we can and can't marry.
I am in a position that I have to go to Colombia for 21 days then give notice of marriage at the Embassy in Bogota, then wait another 21 days so that the Certificate of No Impediment is given to me (yes that's 42 days). Then you can freely marry.
What a joke but that's the way it is and that's what I need to use all my holiday leave on.
I feel sorry for the committee that I can't help but I'll help all the way up to the Gibraltar Open, in fact just today I printed 112 coach tickets with nice perforated edges and numbered and am also getting the entries sorted so I am doing my part (what people don't see - or appreciate I might add).
Lastly today I speak to Darren on MSN on a few Gib Open issues.
