We paid £63 ( or something like that) for an early appointment but it did not seem to help at all! But it is a small amount in the greater scheme of things, what with visa fee, IHS, PSC fees etc. And we stayed in a hotel overnight just to be sure we got there in time. But there were lots of children, KFdancer so it will be like being in a nursery! I know you will be so relieved when it is over! I already worry about ours in less than two years. Time is passing too quickly!
