I found out it means a trip to london first..just to get a bloody visa...sheer aggro for a 3 day trip . Forgot that idea already.
@bigmac There is also one in Manchester if it is nearer to your place. I went to Italy last year. If your wife is travelling with you she just needs to show proof of flights and accommodation booked both on your name. If she is travelling alone without you she needs to show proof of funds in her Current account not savings account. I find that requirement odd but it is posted in VFS office.
