We're sure they will be ready...it seems a well established process.

CONGRATULATIONS!

We collected our passports last May - isn't it a wonderful feeling? We couldn't stop staring at them.

Good Luck

Well SarahMom, it's 8.40am here in Okotoks, Alberta, which, we reckon, means, if all went well on the passport pick up, you have probably been staring at your shiny new visas for maybe an hour or so! Really pleased for you. Time to celebrate!

Kind regards,

Eamonn & Janet.

Excellent and well done. Look after those babies. I think I checked them a million times up to departing Gatwick :-)

They do indeed! Shame they scribble all over them when you go through the landing process!

Enjoy the Chinese...that's making me hungry!

We were the same. Why it was we thought our passports would develop Houdini type abilities, we have no idea!
