Let me make you one visa in ...Let me make you one visa in photoshop. Just tel me which country you would like. That is one of other ways to make visa.
Seriously, if your application had been rejected in embassy of one EU country it is useless to go in another embassy of some EU country, because they will reject you too.
Maybe there is a reason, maybe not.

Aroona, how can yer Aunt and Uncle be British ?? ...Just cos they live there doesnt make them Brits.
And you ask what is wrong with yer Somali Passport....Simple, Somalia hates the West. You hate us, but then wanna visit...

Mr. Paul... ...morning Mr.P... ok.. he didn't specify whether they are british citizens or british nationals, she just said: british...so they ARE british, since they are citizens of Britan, they live there, they work there, they have their home and life there, not in Somalia.
... ok.. now let me ask you another question, i really get confused sometimes... again, in the case of those aunt and uncle... let's say, they lived in Britain for 20 years, and came to Qatar to work... and you ask them: "where are you from?"... what do you expect to hear, Mr.P? Let's say, they will answer: "we are from UK".. would you, considering their rather dark skin, or hearing their rather not pure british accent... would you tell them something like "oh, nooo, you are not from Britain"?
..really, just wondering, nothing is behind this question.. thanks.

Actualy Mr Paul ...Is right on this one, we have the same problem in Australia, we have people there that while are citizens of Australia and may have lived there for 20 odd years they have not actually been naturalized. Unfortunately as I am sure it is the same in the U.K these are also the same people who get offended when they don't get their own way.

It happened to my husband here a South African lady asked my husband something similar, the conversation went something like this
Lady "were are you from?'
husband "from Australia!'
Lady " I know you live in Australia, but were are you from?"
husband " I am an Australian'
lady " No you live in Australia were are you originally from"
Husband (at this point getting pretty angry) " I went to Australia when I was six from Chile, I was Naturalized by the time I was eight and have lived there ever since,"
Just to add to this my husband has actually been an Australian longer than I've been born.

Mis-Kat... all present ...Mis-Kat... all present "australians" have been "naturalized" at some point.. it is NOT a problem.. it just takes time..the same with "americans" and "canadians".. they all came to these lands at some point of history...
here you go:
*********************
.. humans lived in Australia at least twelve thousand years before they appeared in Europe.
...To put this in perspective, so that we can appreciate the time scales, since the first fleet arrived in 1788 there have only been 8 generations of settlers . On the other hand, there have been in excess of 18,500 generations of aboriginals !!!
******************
so please don't complain about "poor australians, having the same problem".. If not your Mom, so your Grandma or great grandma came to Australia from other country, and it was not too long time ago...from the standpoint of the history of mankind...
...only with UK may be yes, it's different...

MR.Paul They can be British ...MR.Paul
They can be British Citizens BUT not British nationals.
The American version of your statement.
They could be Naturalized American citizens, but not American, natural-Born citizens.
It almost gives them full rights, except they cant hold no Presidential position.

New visa clamp on UK visitors ...By CAIREN HARRY
BAHRAINIS and other non-Britons visiting loved ones in the UK will now have to be sponsored by a family member in line with some of the biggest changes to Britain's immigration system in 45 years. Anyone whose relatives overstay their welcome could face a fine or even prison.
Travellers visiting family in the UK previously needed only a visa before they were allowed to enter the country.
However, they will now also have to be sponsored by a family member who is either a British citizen or a permanent resident.
British border and immigration minister Liam Byrne announced the changes at the end of last month as part of a "comprehensive overhauling" of the UK's current visa system.
"Sponsors will have the duty of ensuring visitors leave before their visa runs out," said Mr Byrne.
"If sponsors fail in their duties, they face a ban on bringing anyone else over, penalties of up to £5,000 (BD3,721) or even a jail sentence."
British Embassy Press and public affairs officer Johara Al Khalifa said the move was to prevent people entering the UK on false pretences and staying on illegally.
"They are amending the laws to be tougher on people who break the law," she said.
"There is currently a problem with people coming in to the UK saying they are visiting family and simply never leaving.
"The new laws will keep closer tabs on people coming in."
Individuals who wish to sponsor family members will need to be licensed by the UK Border Agency (UKBA) and will have to agree to take full responsibility for their visitors.
Ms Al Khalifa said that she didn't believe the changes would make much of a difference to Bahrainis visiting the UK.
"It's still in the initial stages, but I don't think it will have a huge impact on Bahrainis travelling to Britain," she said.
"Tourists and business people can still apply for visit visas without having to worry about being sponsored."
Separate categories for business and special visitors will be created to make the activities that are permitted while in the UK clear and the rules are said to be for those hoping to stay with families for long periods.
Professional and amateur sportsmen and women, as well as entertainers, will be regarded as special visitors who will be allowed to enter the country for up to six months without a visa.
The length of visit visas will remain at six months after an initial proposal to shorten them to three months was rejected, although the UKBA will have the discretion to grant shorter visas if judged appropriate.
However, Bahraini student Ahmed Ali who studies in the UK said the new changes were ridiculous.
"The changes are really frustrating," he said.
"My family now cannot come to the UK on the basis of visiting me because I'm not a British citizen and can't accept responsibility for them.
"My family has no desire to use me to sneak into the country. What is worse is that other kinds of visitors don't have the same measures imposed on them." The changes are due to come into effect soon.

mis-kat,so you know what i ...mis-kat,
so you know what i mean then...it is really disgusting sometimes to hear such things..
i heard even one american said to the guy who was born in mexico and lived in USA for a last 25 years out of his 42, got a good education there, but still have some spanish accent, something like that:
american: where are you from?
guy: I am american
american: are YOU american?? NO!! you are an AMERICAN PASSPORT HOLDER!! BUT NOT AMERICAN!
can you imagine that?? even not: "you LIVE in US", but "american passport holder"!
...it was just so frustrating for the guy, who entirely integrated to the american society, adopted american mentality and followed american traditions and life style...
