I agree. Go to their office and ask for all of your paperwork back and don't leave their office without it. Then get your visa application pack compiled and ready for submission, pay your visa fee at one of the designated banks and apply online for an appointment. Although there is currently a delay in the processing of applications, I don't think there is any delay in the availability of appointments to submit applications.
