Fingers crossed but it looks like everything's going to work out really well for us.

Decided to go in September and have rented a lovely rental.
......and today, my work has announced 350 redundancies and have asked for volunteers - mmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!
Just need a visa now

Re: Good news
OH MY GOODNESS YOU SOLD YOUR HOUSE AND VOLUNTEERED REDUNDANCY WITHOUT GETTING YOUR VISA FIRST!!!! You are very brave! Even though I think my application is safe, I dont have the confidence to do anything drastic till the visa is in our passports!!!
best of luck, hope all goes well for you!
