    Hi Sarah,

    Best of luck to you both :) Not long now and it will all be over.

    I can only echo what's already been said.... try to relax and don't offer more information than is asked of you. I have a terrible tendancy to waffle and almost had to stuff my fist into my mouth to keep myself quiet :o

    Re the smoking..... I'm saying nothing! I almost smoked myself into a coma the morning of our interview ;)

    About your H's drop in wages - the OR might ask for some proof of this. I had a similar situation..... the week before our interview I was told my hours were being cut and work sent me a new contract showing this. The OR did ask to see a copy of this. Do you have any sort of proof or anything in writing from his employer?
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

    Proud to be BSC no. 103
  • Oh good luck!! I really hope it goes well. Come back and tell us about it when you can won't you? Take care.

    Does anyone know if OR needs to speak to OH if only one of a couple go BR? When my OH goes BR I have been told that my SOA has to cover all bills (full amount even if in joint names) ...I`m worried I will have to go through this..otherwise divorce may be on the cards!! (OH does`nt know that yet!!)

    Only i went bc and my OR has had nothing to do with oh. Not even his bank account(which was joint up until 3 wks before)so not sure what you are saying here. If only your OH is going bc you don't fill in a SOA,only he does. Not sure where you got you advice from so sad so start a thread and ask away that way we should be able to straighten you out:D

    Gosh it must be near the end of lfh's,hope it was ok.
