Thanks for the well-wishes!!! I wish I was in London to help Darren out (at least with the nervousness part), but I'm stuck here in Orlando waiting to hear good news hopefully before I leave for work!

I let everyone know as soon as I find anything out!!!

What time does he have to be there?

His appointment is at 9 AM, so he's going to try to be there by 8:15. We did a test run to the embassy the week while I was there, so he would know what he's looking for...

Since I leave for work at 6:30 AM, he should be finished with the interview...and he'll call me...

Good luck!!! They didn't let me start queuing until 8.30am for my 9am appt so he should prepare for a bit of a wait :)

is it weird that whenever i know someone's having their interview, I have the urge to go down there and bring them some snacks or cheer them on or something. It's about a 15 min walk away from my office, I always think of them in the queue needing distraction :blush:

Thanks so much for all the encouraging words!!! I'm a little excited, but not too nervous. Darren should be on the train to London by now...I'm sure getting more nervous by the minute....

He keeps asking me if anyone else from VJ will be there and I keep telling him, "Honey, why don't you check the site?" But it doesn't seem like anyone ealse here is at the London consulate...

I know he'll do fine, but I wish I was there to be with him for it...
