    I'll join this club if thats ok, our local Court seems a different process to most the others I've read.

    Went to the court today handed over the papers, got asked to sign the papers in a couple of places, swore an oath and paid our £990 (me & my wife going BR) and we have a date to go back on the 8th when the Judge is next back in???

    Nice and quick appointment which I thought was good, shocked my wife somewhat though, so 8th is our big day :T

    Ditto here - I go before the judge on the 8th too. In less than a week all the waiting will be over!

    Good luck - I am paying my fees (£510, booooo) on the 7th though so will be back and forth to the court at least twice next week :)

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.

    Hi you are welcome to the April club, in some ways, quicker is better, less time to stress and worry over the matter. Best wishes for the day.
