[QUOTE=Morwenna]Many many congrats Wendy!!!!

I really do mean that but....

Awwww shucks, I always reckoned we were only a coupla weeks behind you, but we've got caught in the great nothingness of the last 2 months, and I'm getting truly depressed now

The only thing keeps me from cracking completely is that fact that I only know of ONE "Feb AOR" skilled worker applicant who has had med requests. But they are two weeks AFTER our AOR, so what gives????????

I read another poster said that the CHC had sent their staff to Hong Kong to sort out their backlog of 5 years, and that is why processing in London has been suspended......

That sounds fishy. More like London staff have been sent to HK to fill in for local staff who've been fired for being on the take.

Jamie sounds just like me!
I was about 12 when my parents dragged me to some really posh wedding.
I took about 2 minutes choking on the over rated salted slimeball and had the whole reception staring at me. Bad memories
Hang on in there with the house.

Now we just need someone to buy our house, lady pulled out today from sale so back to square one.
Thought I would share some good news on the forum for a change.
That's great news!
The money from the sale of your house will give you a fantastic head start when you arrive in Canada.
Good Luck.
