Pet passports... good news?

No, I think the dog will still be able to stay longer than me. I keep threatening to divorce Mr 001 and marry someone with an EU passport.

I have an EU passport, wink wink

This is what ChatGPT says. I think we are much more relaxed than the Schengen zone.

Re-entry Rules After Six Months:​

There is no fixed minimum period that an EU citizen must stay outside the UK before returning — but…


The UK Border Force looks at patterns of travel. If someone tries to spend more time in the UK than abroad, or appears to be living in the UK via frequent visits, they might be denied entry.

General Guidance:​

• Spending 6 months in, 6 months out is typically acceptable.
• Spending more than 180 days in any 12-month period as a visitor may raise red flags.
• The purpose of the visit matters. Repeated long stays without a clear tourist or family reason may be questioned.

Best Practice:​

• After a 6-month stay, wait at least several months (ideally 3–6) before returning for another long stay.
• Be prepared to show ties to your home country (e.g. job, residence, return ticket) if questioned at the border.

Don't take everything that Ai/ChatGPT tells you as correct Barry, (although I am not saying this bit is wrong). One of the grand daughters was telling me you couldn't put a physical SIM card in her iPhone because it had an eSIM. After half an hour of me saying you can I asked her where she got the info from and she sent me a screenshot where AI had answered her question!

Oh I don't. There are a few things I've debated with it that I know its wrong about. In fact they should be paying me to educate it. I'm hoping its wrong about my fuel gauge on my bike (see my other ChatGPT thread) as it now thinks Im stuffed but I think its wrong about the gauge levels.

Its still mega useful though.
