Default Great News!!!

Hi all. First of all we have borrowed an old PC from the FIL's office so the Sods are back for the time being.

For those who have been following this saga the good news is as follows.
You may remember me saying that the husband of a friend has offered me a job on my return? Okay. The really good news is that we spoke the other day on the phone and, out of the blue, my friend said we could all stay with them until we get our own place. They have a big four bed house in leafy Sale. They have a seperate lounge that she inists upon us making our own while we are there so that we can have our own space.

Well, of course, all of this means that......drum roll.............we can all fly out together as a family!!! Yaaay!!! There will be no need for us to be apart from months. I have a job, a place for us to stay so all of our ducks are almost in a row. All we have to do now is navigate the minefield that is the visa apps. Oh weell. Thats the news. be back to post the usual load of old shite you are all more used to hearing.

Thanks guys. Of course I will keep ya'll posted. We are aiming for the end of feb to be gone but, realistically, it may be more like the end of March. We really want to try and be gone before the summer season starts and the flights get more expensive.

It is the best news ever though, that we wont have to be apart from a couple of months while I go house hunting alone. Now we just have to face the bleedin insane 17 page spousal visa form. Like all goverment forms it is as clear as mud.

oh well, needs must and all that. Please forgive any typos by the way, for the next few days until I get used to this new keyboard (that has seen better days lol)

It is a bit on the posh side for my liking. That said I have lived with a few posh birds in the past so I am sure I can pull it orf lol.

Then again The Racecourse estate is in sale and that is a real hell hole. It is the most CCTV monitored estates in the country, if not the whole of europe. We won't be anywhere near there though daaahling!!!
