Before anyone starts panicking this isn't as random as it might seem or suspicious!
I needed to renew my passport just before I got married as needed to have six months left on it as a minimum to get to the Maldives. I could have got it changed into my married name, but as I was away with work a great deal I couldn't risk changing it too close to the wedding so changed it a while before.
So I had no choice other than to change it to my maiden name and since then I've had a very shiny passport in my maiden name much to the annoyance of my husband! Not that it's been that well used since I got married and less so since I had our first child. And frankly I was a bit put off that I had to pay the full amount even though I was changing it for a legal reason!
But, I added it to the list as realised I've left it long enough and frankly the next time I go away it will be wth my children and I'd want us to have the same names in our passports. So, filled out the forms, wrote a big cheque and a few weeks later my passport finally matched me. Now it's time to do the childrens! And yes, that will be another tick on the list!
