normal turnaround is 3-4 weeks?

otherwise, it's a trip to your local passport office.

Urgent applications are easy peasy if you need one. I think it's an extra ~£40 on top of the normal renewal price and is better done with an appointment as opposed to turning up on spec.
Get to the website and check out the info on there... You wont have a problem at this time of year...

Speak to Jonno, you could have one within the week and you can even choose the name you have on it

Do it soon.

I lost mine just before going to Morocco and had to cancel the whole thing!

Spent hours on the phone trying to sort it out but no joy.
