    Listening Test Passed

    Just back from the delights of Manila where my wife took the TOEIC test at Hopkins (635 total, 350 on the listening part) so we just have to wait a week or so now for the speaking score.

    And it's my birthday so SMBs all round

    That's good ... so I imagine it'll now be full steam ahead with the visa application.

    Thanks all, she's obviously very relieved (although I knew she would do it) She was panicking as she mis-heard one of the questions and recorded 'Sh*t, I missed that' into the microphone. Not sure whether she would lose marks for swearing or that it showed a knowledge of English coloquialisms

    Anyway, I'm now back in the UK and have to work 6 months for the payslips before we apply for the visa hohum

    And that's a great score Leen

    Yep. She probably got a bonus mark for that!

    I think Filipina wives are quite unique in their ability to pass a listening test. My first wife would have failed miserably.

    ... you can say that again, Andy! Although, *sound [*pun intended] commonsense seems to be renowned for falling on "deaf ears" whenever ANY Govt is involved, to be honest.
