Selected!!
OH MY GOD! We got selected last night. There was no way I could stay up until 1.00 to see what happened because I'd have been useless in work (again) all day, so had to have a stiff drink to help me sleep.
Woke up at 3.00, sorely tempted to check, but talked myself in staying in bed, woke up at 4.30, couldn't get back to sleep, gave up trying and checked, and there was that lovely little word - they should really make it more exciting, flashing letters, fanfare sounds, images of twirling batons an fireworks .....
So I've given up on going back to bed, cos I can barely sit still never mind lie still. This is only the beginning - I'm gonna be a wreck. When we land in NZ they'll stamp my passport NUTTER and send me back.
Could I BE any more excited?

Re: Selected!!
As you are clearly a little odd, I'll give immigration a call and object to your selection. Far too many nutters trying to get into NZ...

We've played safe and put hubby down as principal applicant, and hope they don't check me out too much!
