Default Congratulations to me!!!!

I know I'm rather sad, but.... I am now a senior member!!!
I've often wondered how many posts you have to make before you are officially senior, and now I know!!!

I'm now going to go and tell the rest of the family my news!!!

Thanks! I haven't got much karma in spite of my 100 posts (hint, hint!) perhaps that says more than I want it to!!!

It's funny what amuses us during the "long wait" isn't it. (or is it just me?!

Ha!, look at your karma level now!

No it's quite usual..... called emigration sickness, or CHC bug

well done on your senior level. I'm just over halfway there myself. Could someone explain what the Karma thing is. I have seen the button on the posting and wondered.

Helluva lot more than me

Then again, I know that I'm going to be recalled to Hell eventually so brownie points won't matter! LOL

...and yes: it is just you.

Have a good one and enjoy the senior status. You'll get your gold star badge in the post.

Sadly I think you were joking about the gold badge but as my daughter tells me never to give out personal information to people in chat rooms, I guess I'll never know! Actually, she's just mad because I'm always using the computer so she can't chat to her friends online!

I just hope that when we eventually get to Canada, I'll be too busy to spend so much time on here - unless it's addictive! but then, I haven't looked at my eclient status in months so there must be some hope!

Many thanks for the small blue squares???

Nope. Not joking at all regarding the Gold badge. I wear mine with pride every day at work. My students are extreeeeeeemly jealous.

I think you may just forget about this site and concentrate on the business of surviving once you get to Canada. Possibly look in once in a while to see what's going on? Who really knows?

Just looked at the old e-client and noted the status as 'Decision made'. About time it changed. We sent off our passports 2 weeks ago to London for Visa stamping and God alone knows what else they do to it (I personally think the Immigration officers take it in turns to use your passport and nip out for an illicit booze trip to Calais ).

Now officially terrified and paranoid about the whole thing but expect that I'll be sipping a Timmy Hortons and eating a double chocolate glazed doughnut come July. Mmmmmmm, doughnutsssssssss ......

Well, hope it all goes well for you. We are currently riding out the teenage tantrums of children (how can you do this to me? You are ruining my life! I hate you etc etc!) but I am ignoring them so far! The trouble with this process it that it takes so long that they have time to change their minds so many times!

I am ashamed to admit this but.... never been to Tim Hortons!!!
We are landing in March, so better put that right then!

You will love Timmies. Their BLT's are great We also have 2 teens and they swing between wanting to go and staying here, especially our daughter. It's tough on them with the long wait, but we try and carry on as normal. My DH sits the TEF in less than a fortnight, so hopefully he will pass and we can finally move onto the medical stage. Good luck with your landing
