SO OH and I went for our meds today. Didn't get to bed until 2am this morning cos I was so excited from finding out we got our CO on Wed (though I only realised that on Friday night) so was feeling a bit knackered. OH went in first and I had to go hunt for a photocopier cos they needed copies of our passports (though they never told me this when I was asking them over the phone what I needed to bring...). By the time I got back it was my turn to see the doc. He basically grilled me on every single point on my forms, even correcting my very neat handwriting and asking me why on earth I wanted to leave this perfect place that was Singapore!! He finished the examination by telling me that I would be back and I felt like telling him where to stick his thoughts. Got outside and asked OH if he's been given a 'thorough' onceover and he said that he wasn't asked a SINGLE question!!!

I know that this is a necessary part of the process but when you get a person like that quizzing you on how exactly you broke your leg when you were 10 and telling you that you'll be moving back before you know it, it doesn't half make you blinking frustrated!

It sounds as if the Dr in Singapore took his job a little too seriously, sounds as if you got through it ok - you'll have to send him a postcard every anniversary saying "still here"
