Re: A Cunning Plan
We hit a similar issue, returning from France by ferry with my wife travelling on a non UK/EU passport. British passport control were unhappy with the fact she'd not got an exit stamp from UK. Being Brits (and either pragmatic or lazy) they decided, after a few minutes and a bit of head-scratching, that as she'd got her original entry stamp to UK the lack of exit stamp was a failure on the part of passport control (in fact, to board the outbound ferry, none of us were even asked to show our passports when we left for France).
