Default Is it a bill? Is it a birthday card? No its....

A yellow envelope from DIMIA!!!! I got my visa!!!! Woohoooo!

Just as I was starting to think it would never arrive... there it is!
What a load off! Now I get to start to plan ahead to... what next?
Thinking I'll spend a last summer in the UK, then off to Brisbane. Need to be in Oz before April 11th to validate though.

Hey - anybody know of any cheap tickets to Oz over Xmas time?

I feel stunned.... elated....no, stunned...... oh good grief!!!

Time for a cuppa and to breathe deeply.

Oh sod it - lets celebrate!!!:PARTY: :PARTY: :PARTY:

Thanks to you all for just being there. Will keep you all informed as plans progress and if I find out anything interesting.
