On an India visa form I have to put two references in the UK and two in India. They say that if you don't have one for India you can just put the hotel where you are staying. But who on earth should I list as the UK references?

Kind of people you can get to sign passport photos.
I certainly don't ever remember anything about references though
Ohh and get there realllly early - my friend was there at 8 this morning and didnt' get in, so aim for 7 or earlier.
Good news is that they have re-commended the postal visa service so I'm just going to send it off (special delivery only).
It's not the same if you haven't spent a good few hours in the line to get the VISA - also you meet some really nice people whilst you wait ..LOL
oh the joys of the indian high comission - its like a tiny piece of india in the heart of london - you shoudl go its a worthwhile experience.
It came today, I sent it off using the special delivery postal visa service at the start of December so it was pretty quick really.
In the end I just used two friends who've known me a few years for the references, as far as I know they weren't actually contacted anyway.
I was quite nervous about getting it so I'm really pleased it went through okay.
