On Top Of The World

[ian8limelight]

For those of you that know me, you will know that I have had brief (and sometimes extended!) periods away from the Forum when I go to visit my wife and our 17 month old daughter in Russia (although I do even sometimes post when I am there ;) ).

Today we received the fantastic news that Elena's (my wife) spouse visa has been approved, which means that they can both now come and live in the UK :D :D :D :D

Life has now improved 1000%+ :guinness: :5star: :heart1: :heart1:

My sincere thanks to those members of this Forum, who will remain nameless, who have provided me (and us) with their sincere understanding and support during this long, and sometimes very difficult, journey.

Congratulations Ian!

It's been a L-O-N-G road, but you're finally (almost) there.

Pass on our congratulations to Elena, and you'll need to arrange a babysitter so we can go out an celebrate when they arrive!

Have they booked their tickets yet? :D

Thanks Angela (& Steve), of course I will.

Next step is ticket availability around work commitments :confused:

Ian that's wonderful news. Yet again, I had got hold of the wrong end of the stick, and I'm really glad I was wrong. :D

Nice one, Ian!

Just like the Blues Brothers - everything turns out alright in the end! (alright, so they get sent to prison but they saved the orphanage and that, after all, was their mission from God!!!).
