I work in The City (right outside Bank Station) and live in Essex. I see you live in Kings Langley. Do you work in the city as well?
I work in Herts but have a office in City as well which I visit sometimes. So surely we can meet some Friday there.

You can enjoy your holiday in India and find a job there, if not you are most welcome to UK with the same visa... ditto. Just one thing. This sounds like a tall order, but keep ILR at one corner of your head as well when you are going outside UK. It can't be more than 180 days as per present rule. ...

Jai Ho royal mail it is then. :-) That adds another similarity to our (yours, HSMP_maybe's and mine) cases. I hope we all come a joint first. Even I thought about it and did not send. I am wondering now that we have received the reference number, can we request for courier collection? What are your...

For me it's showing as separate transactions of 50 and 820 on 1st Dec from Croydon Office. But I doubt, if these make any differences. Does it worth calling them? From what I heard in this forum, they let the caller hold on for 10 minutes and then they are being told unless its 14 wks, they wouldn't...

I had the same case. No worries, you will be fine.
You can bring your own X'ray report from a top hospital/pathology from your city. The plate is not needed.
