Thanks everyone

Very happy with Date of Ceremony given, suits the family and myself very well, besides, what's the point of rushing it up after 6 1/2 yrs, notwithstanding will be travelling before that date, and the fact that I have been reliably told that a Group Ceremony is quite an experience and atmosphere.Ancestor wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 7:58 pmPosting x 2 as my wife and I completed and submitted separate individual applications for both and each of us simultaneously, having qualified same time, just in event any dates turn out differently:-
