Re: Cochrane

Ditto, good luck! You'll love Cochrane!

Poppit, how long have you lived here? Are you from the UK? We just moved into our house a couple of weeks ago, so I'm still finding my way around!

Re: Passport drop off advice

Thanks, it's just that we're going on holiday at the end of next month so he wants to make sure it's back by then. :)

My OH is dropping off his passport in London on Thursday.

Re: Immigration Lawyer or Not?
