    It's more of the cherry on top of the cake.
    The Visa technically has been granted. I just need to appear for a 5 minute meeting for a face to face confirmation that I do exist, am as good looking as the photo provided etc etc
    I hand over my passport and 3 days later get it back with Visa in.

    Well, that's what I've been led to believe anyway!

    Got the 6.21 train from stafford.
    Back on the 3.46pm to stafford.

    Give us a few hours to have a wander round London after the interview.
    Just to re-enforce our decision to leave :)

    Hope it all goes well tomorrow Neil.

    We're off down to Gatwick tomorrow afternoon - twilight check in and Travelodge overnight, flying Saturday morning (:j). It has been mad at work all week and will be even crazier tomorrow, so I guess this is it........:wave:
    Thanks, and here's to the $ continuing it's upward momentum :beer: .
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end
