No, I understand what you mean but I kept that part quiet. I always travel on my Aussie but on this trip, my Aussie passport was in the hands of the Sudanese Embassy. So I had no choice as anyone who has dealt with the Sudanese Embassy will know that the average length of time to get anything done is at least 4 weeks.
So it was really a case of a UK national being required to turn up for interview at Australian Embassy abroad.
