Finally I am on my way!
« on: May 31, 2002, 04:43:25 PM »
Hey Everyone!
Got my spouse visa yesterday and found an awesome flight on Virgin for $250 and I am flying out tomorrow.  I can't believe it!  Isn't it funny how we stress out and then all of the sudden it all comes together.  I will be in London on June 2 and will be in touch when I arrive! :)
Thanks to all of you for the advice and kind thoughts.  Rowley is so excited.  This is the longest we have ever been apart.  I called him on his mobile with the good news yesterday and he was in Tesco's (assume stocking up before the bank holiday as all good Brits do!).  He was nearly crying in the Tesco.  HOORAY!  YIPPEE! ON MY WAY!
Cheers and Happy Jubilee!
Tammy

Thanks! Did you get your flight yet?  If not, check out autoeurope.com.  They have great deals. I can give a direct contact there too. Her name is Shelly.  Oh, let's wait until my tickets arrive this morning before I recommend them.  I will get going on the party too!
Cheers!

Congratulations!  When I got my fiance visa I just stared at it for hours  ;)  I can't belive you found a ticket for that at this time of the year!  I suppose that it just goes to show that things happen when they were suppose to.  If your visa had come earlier, you might have had to pay a ransom to get over.

That's fantastic news!  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

(Just so you know, because we couldn't all meet you at the airport, we've arranged a little celebration for your arrival. Sorry they're not all American flags, but at this short notice, the only thing red-white-blue in this country has an "X" through it. But the sentiment is there.)

Great news Tammy, and by now it's a "big welcome to the UK!!" I hope everything has gone alright for you, and hope you're settling in alright.  :)
