Thanks for the luck everyone. :thumbs:

I'm in my London hotel room at the moment and I'm soooooooo nervous. I think a couple of glasses of wine with dinner are in order - just to calm my nerves of course. :whistle:

I'll report back tomorrow evening when I get back up north.

Griff rang at 4:30 US time to tell me he'd been approved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First they collected his paperwork, where they remarked about how organized he was! Sat back down for 2 mins, then they called his name first. Said the guy asked him exactly 3 questions, as follows:
  1. Where did you meet?
  2. Do you remember when that was?
  3. Why will you live in the US as opposed to the UK?
The guy said, "I see your medical is this aftertoon, so once we have those results your passport and visa will arrive a few days later. Have a good day."

Griff said he walked out euphoric, but slightly disappointed that they didn't want to see any of the evidence of our ongoing relationship!!!! Said the only person who got a look at any of our photos was the fight attendant from BA he waited in line with outside the embassy who was there to collect her visa!

OK, just wanted to give you guys the brief rundown, now I must finish getting ready for work!! Will be back once I arrive there!!!!! *so happy*

Congrats Julez & Griff :dance:
