[Russian visa]

Visa arrived today after applying for it last week in edinburgh. Chose to get it delivered so took an extra couple of days (7 working days instead of 5 days if you pick up)

Followed the instructions as mentioned else where in this post. 

Couple of things to note that i did :

• countries visited - i included those where i had stamps in my passport and also other scotland  trips up to the max of 10. I didn’t include any family holidays  as i didn’t have those details easily available as i do for Scotland trips
• kids details - enter details about kids but not their passports

If you have the details at hand it is relatively straight forward. Also you can save and edit it so you don’t have to fill it in in one go.

2010 game our taxi drove past it and there was tree's starting to grow where the pitch was going to be as it was just a quarter built shell at the time that had been abandoned

Went past it last week and There has been more progress on the stadium - more trees have grown on the pitch! It Is basically an overgrown abandoned building site.

Game will be the LFF stadium in Vilnius. used to be FC Vetra's ground but the LFF bought it when Vetra went bust. Seems to be the main stadium for football as Zalgiris use it too and they are one of the main teams and current champions
