Thumbs up Good News, Bad News
Hello Everyone,

Good news
After 11 months of feeling in limbo, I today received a phone call from my agent telling me that we have been granted our 136 visa. Brilliant, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Bad news

At 6.15pm tonight whilst sharing a bottle of champagne with my wife, I received a phone call from my accountant, just to let me know that I owe £8000 in capital gains tax and just to cheer me up even more he told me that they would like it next week!

Could they not have let me and my wife enjoy the moment for a little longer?

Anyway, c'est la vie.

All the best to everyone who is still waiting for visas to be granted.
From the oldgit
:)

ps. I don't suppose anyone could lend me a couple of quid, could they?
