GAP during 10 years long residencey

[fiazpk]

It is soon going to be 10 years since I have lived in the United Kingdom, and I wish to find out if I am eligible for Indefinite Leave to Remain,
All my visa extensions have been well in advance of their expiry except one,
where my student visa was expiring on 13/07/2005 and I posted my student visa application on 18/07/2005 as especial next day delivery and confirmation of receipt of my application was issued on 28/07/2005 and student visa was issued on 16/08/2005,
It seems there is 14 days gap including weekends between my visa expiry and receipt of visa application was issued at stated on home office letter head,
And application was post after 4 days after visa expired the reason for this was that my college released my documents late on 15/05/2005, dates also stated on my college documents,

In my 10 years stay in UK, I have only once been out of UK for one month exactly,

I would be very grateful, if you could access my situation and confirm if I am eligible for ILR application,
Regards,
Riaz
