You will have to re-new your passport as you need to have 6 months on your passport from the date of your return.
Its cutting it a bit fine with yours and I wouldnt risk it..

Your right Welshpat on the net it does say from the date of entry.
But I have also read were it says you only need to have 3 Months left,
A lot of conflicting info comeing up,I would still re-new mine if you intend to travel in the future.
Try the British Consulate site.

I think I will take your advise and re-new my passport just to be on the save side.
Thanks again.

Thanks Dave,
My current Passport would just still be valid as long as they don't change the entry requirements.
