Nice love story.
Me too, I probably would not have figured out the hidden clue's.
Your visa was approved Dec 9?? That's quite a long time ago. What is the date of validity?
I only ask because usually UKBA don't issue visa's more than 3 months ahead of start dates?
Anyway enjoyed reading your story and I hope all works out well for you journey to UK
Just in time for some nice weather too.
