It did get annoying to have someone stamping it each time I came back to London from a weekend in another country- I have at least 6 different UK stamps because of this. Oh well, at least I got one from France (I had to ask for it).

I was upset that there wasn't any passport control at Vatican City. But I suppose it would make it very inconvenient for all the people who commute between there and Italy. There's less excuse for me not getting a stamp in Norway. I mean, I was on a train when I crossed the border, but people got on in the first Norwegian stop and checked passports. They could have had a stamp as well. How hard would it have been?
