I appreciate your reason for wanting one, it pretty much applies to anyone considering marriage. However, in my opinion, you would not be granted a B visa for this reason. |

This was during the transition from a time when locals who were known to the shopkeepers were routinely extended credit. End of social history lesson. (Joke signs sometimes used to say "Please do not ask for credit, as a punch in the mouth often offends.") |

Get the bird to visit you, she can come for 6 months at a time presuming she doesn't have any convictions or anything else stopping her from coming to the UK. |
