WELL DONE DEBZ!! I KNEW YOU'D DO IT... SO PROUD OF YOU :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

I can't wait to hear ALL the details, please don't leave anything out. I was thinking of you all day today & actually walked by the Embassy at the end of my day. I wanted to see if it was still the same entrance as when I was last there a few years ago. Good to know what direction to run in in case my tube journey is disrupted or something... I must say, I've already started going through all the things that might go wrong & feel a tad nervous myself now...

Please could those who interviewed on the 2nd of Feb also post testimonies with every single little detail please? It really helps. I got my packet 4 today.

It says no large bags, I'm wondering whether it's okay to put my large scrap book & all my large envelopes & folders of paperwork onto a tote type of bag or should I just use a large shopping bag in case I have to trash it? Of course I'm taking extra stuff that they're not even asking for. Better safe than sorry.. :blush:

Thanks guys... I'm assuming Tinkerbelle has been approved & they are off busy celebrating!!

Has anyone heard from Tinkerbelle? She's been active on VJ since her interview but hasn't said anything about it.

Gillian

Odd for sure! I couldn't wait to report the good news! I do hope it all went OK for her! Enquiring minds want to know!

So EM, how is life in these United States treating you? Have you guys tied the knot yet?
