    Hi TehRoflcopterz

    have added you on the list but had to write your name down to make sure got it right! :D

    Guess your OR office is really busy, that is a long wait for your OR interview. Hope it goes well for you when it eventually comes along. :D

    Im in east mids so I don't think I will get Blackpool. ;)

    BR is serious but you're right, no point in losing your sense of humour!

  • Cheers Don!

    Yeah, trying to put the OR interview to the back of my mind and "enjoy" Xmas & New Year as best as possible... much easier now the wheels are in motion, that's for sure.

    I know it won't be easy to put it out of your mind but have the family around, eat dinner, watch tv, have some choccies and some wine or beer and enjoy it. Have a good time. :D

  • Hi, I've been reading posts here for quite a while now..

    I went BR on 16th Dec @ 8:45. The court saw me at 8:30 as my other half told them I had an appt to see a school for my son and they opened early for me.
    They were all very nice and i didn't need to see the judge. It was all over in less than 30 mins.

    I had mr OR interview the next day on the phone. It was tough and they have asked for lots more information which i have sent to them.

    Am hoping that they will not contact me any more

    Am encouraged by lots of stories on this board


    Life is too short, loneliness is too long.

    :A Don't worry be happy...... :beer:

    glad that you had a good experience of it all, hopefully the next thing you hear will be the lovely sound of an early discharge letter coming through the door. :j
