Hi Paul,

I rang the embassy hotline on Wednesday night (about 6.45) and they said nothing was on the computer, I emailed the embassy about 2 weeks ago and did not get a reply. The interview date was received by mail this morning but the letter was dated 23rd October (wednesday).

Hi Dee,

Hopefully this gives you hope that your interview will be soon aswell, I keep thinking about you and wishing your interview date would come soon.

Hi Roger,

You'll never guess, we went to London today to see a play for our Wedding Anniversary and guess what she managed to buy while we where in London - yes a pair of bloody shoes. A giddy kipper is lancashire expression for someone who acts really giddy (like a child on Christmas eve)

Hi Everyone,

The interview letter only mentions my name - does it have to mention Ellens (as she is coming with and I put that she would be on the OF-169).

Anyone got any advise for me, after all the excitement subsided and reallity finally checked back in I realised I am supposed to be in Edinburgh the week of my interview on a Software Testing Conference (YES it is as geeky as sounds) do I come clean with my Boss (which I really don't want to do as I don't want to give my boss the prewarning I am leaving (Idon't have enough work to do as it is without him assigning my workload to someone else because I am leaving in February/March) or do I make up some story.

Hi Everyone else,

Thanks for your support, I have said it before - this NG feels like a family (only without the alcohilic Mother and strangley demented brother!)

The one thing that is for sure is that I am not moving my interview date.

Congratulations!

Only 37 days from filing to approval for a spouse visa? Which service center was that at? (My guess would be Vermont).

Hi Patrick - that's great news! Hopefully they'll keep the finger out and sort out the rest of us who want to be in the States before Xmas....

Cheers, Sam.
