I am happy to read what she has to share, even though it doesn't directly apply to my situation.

Ok. Thanks for that.

Aw thanks larrabee. That's very kind of you to say that.

No problem! 

A final update which I forgot to mention but will do so now! After almost 6 months of waiting, in the middle of July, I finally got my residence card! Because of this whole debacle I didn't bother to go with my family on holiday earlier in the summer as I didn't want to deal with any more ignorant border agents on the way back. Now however, I have no qualms about travelling!

Congratulations!
