YES!

An early start this morning for the drive down to Croydon and the Home Office offices (?!). It went perfectly and we got our visa, no cock ups at all in our paper work (being paranoid prevents this but is not so good for stress levels!)

I am a very happy man, with a weight lifted off his shoulders. I also have a very happy wife (pictured, outside Lunar House in Croydon). Together we make possibly the happiest couple on the planet ;-)

And to top it all off I've managed 365 Blips, how about that then?! When I started (inspired by davidd) I thought I'd try to Blip everyday in November, but I didn't fancy my chances! But I did it, and I haven't stopped since (despite the odd moment of "shall I shan't I bother?").

I'll save the massive Blipday speech, you've read enough before, suffice to say the people here are awesome and I love it. The standard of inspiring photography from around the world is amazing.

And I've even got a bit better at working my camera :-)
