I sent in my FLR(M) application on the 30th of March and promptly got an acknowledgment letter from UKBA. You know, "received your application -- don't call us, we'll call you." Cool. Then I got another, identical letter today, two weeks later.
Okay, it's no big. I shouldn't even complain, when not hearing anything is worst of all. But my husband said, "hey, look...you got another letter from those Border Agency f*ckwits!" and I made a puddle.
Thought I'd share.
