    chryss: i'm doing good thanks.

    man: so, u r married to adam?

    chryss: yes

    man: when did u get married?

    chryss: july 19, 2008

    man: and when did u first met?

    chryss: online september 2006

    man: how many times did u meet?

    chryss: 3 times

    man: u have a son?

    chryss: yes but he never saw his father.

    man: and u'r not married to this guy?

    chryss: no

    man: when r u planning to go to UK?

    chryss: early february... because we're expecting a baby.

    man: oh do you.. congratulations! when is it due?

    chryss: thank you. due in april.

    man: i'm sorry i can't release ur visa because u can't fly when u'r six months pregnant.

    chryss: (paused at a moment) but we checked airlines that i could fly till my 38 weeks..

    man: i see (pretending he was surprise).. when do u want me to release ur visas? today or in february?

    chryss: (seems i didn't hear that) I'm sorry.

    man: when did u want me to release ur visas for you and your son can fly to UK?

    chryss: aaahhh... hoping u can release it today...

    man: ok, i'll be releasing ur visas today..

    chryss: really?... oh, thank you thank you thank you... (didn't know how many times i said thank you)

    can't remember if the man still said anything... i was shock for a moment then called my husband...

    well, that was just my brief conversation with the ECO (it was just 2 minutes and 12 seconds).. can't remember exactly though.

    i know he said me and my son can go to UK... so i'm sure the decision is final right???

    im very very happy... though still little nervous coz the visa is not yet in my hand...
    WOW! great news! Congrats and goodluck

    Congratulations Chryss, to both of you in fact. Shirley told me on the phone today - it looks like you will not be at our wedding now!! My best wishes for a safe journey to England, I am sure Shirley will keep in touch, and I look forward to meeting you in England at a later date.

    Paul

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

I will keep u updated soon..Happy trip to you and to your son..xxxxx

    God bless everyone!
