Hi angelbird, this evidence thing is a bit of a bummer cos it appears that the ECO's are still living in the last century and are relying on despatches from the front line (snail mail by paddle steamer), which no one uses anymore. I mean, if you write a letter, and it arrives (if your lucky) 2 to 3 weeks later, it's hard to understand what it was all about if you've had at least a dozen conversations online since then. Even if you just write them for the sake of evidence it only causes trouble. Because so much water has passed under the bridge since you sent the letter, you can be sure your girl will pick up on the one sentence which had some relevence to something that was going on or troubling you when you wrote it, but for the life of you, you can't remember what you meant by the time she receives it.
