This is the first trip I have had to pay for, the previous trips were courtesy of air miles collected on business trips.

A comment like this suggests that not only do you have a good job and that you have been in the job for some time - make sure make the Embassy aware of your employment record as this factors into the decision process

Good luck

It is not that i have a great job, it is just the company I work for does most of its work overseas, which means lots of travelling.

I have been in the job for 9 years, and it is only ever my second job (the first was in the Army for 25 years)

I mentioned in yesterdays post that I had sent the next batch of documents to my asawa in the philippines, I used Fedex as I thought they were pretty reliable, and I could track it online. Just checked, there is an exception report stating that they could not deliver, why? they had tried to deliver to the wrong address (not even the same province)

I thought thing were going too smoothly, after all this is an application process to the British Embassy in Manila (or am I just being cynical)

Anyone else used Fedex, did they deliver OK?
