Thank you Holly,
My only advice I will give to all going though the process is dont worry, yes easy to say but much harder to do!
But it will be all ok! They not out to get anyone, just to tick their boxes on their forms and thats it. They helped my hubby though it all.
If you have a 08:30 appointment get their early as the line outside waiting to get in was so long, people said they got their at 0700! madness. But does move fairly fast.
