oldgit Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 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!:biglaugh: 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!:sad: 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?:goofy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
