    Thank you. beginning to feel much calmer now, thinking about it I feel its better to meet face to face, reading facial expression, seeing what is going on is probably better suited to me, I would be a nervous wreck on the end of a phone, and wil be FTF, but at least they will be able to see my level of panic and not just think I am a gibbering nut, will also be able to explain about business better.

    To all the above posters, think this is the first time I have laughed properly in weeks thank you thank you thank you.

    Toilet breaks, cigarette breaks, and even make you more than one cup of coffee if asked :p We also had a discreet box of tissues in the room.

    F2F also means that you get to see the notes that the examiner is writing - as long as you can read them upside down!

    Thanks, no good at reading upside down unfortunately, but I like to deal with people face to face so am now a little more (I stress the little) more at ease with the FTF, it was just a bit of a shock.

    Does anyone know if I can take someone else with me or does this just depend on OR, I am going to give them a ring tomorrow and ask if my partner can come, but if anyone could give me the heads up it would be one less thing for me to be thinking about.
