Completed the interview a couple of days ago.
Interview was scheduled at 8:30, arrived a little early at 8:00am, went through security, leaving my phone and the x-ray image CD with the friendly security folk.
Proceeded up the lift, through another security station into the consulate and took a number.
Called up about 5 minutes later to talk to the first girl who was checking all the paper work was in order, handed over the medical and courier packet, waited about 5 minutes before sitting down again to wait for the actual interview.
Called up (again) about 10 minutes later for the interview to talk with a very pleasant lady. She asked where my wife was, I said she was "still at the hotel" the interviewer smiled and replied "she wasn't keen to come along?" which was met with agreement. A few more questions on when we got married, where I'd lived, where we were planning to live, and if we had a joint sponsor (we didn't, and were qualifying on assets alone) before said I was approved and told me the next steps.
Then it was out the door, down the lift to collect my phone and on my way by 8:45am. The whole thing was very pleasant.
