Re: Visa Success At Last!
We have waited almost 7 years for a Visa - he wanted to come (and I wanted him to visit) ASAP - - not waste almost 4 months out of 6 waiting on better weather!!
He is coping fine with the weather now he has suitable clothing - his father however is still wearing an overcoat indoors :D
We are currently in London and its bloody freezing
Re: Visa Success At Last!
Continue to enjoy his visit SG. Keep us posted.
Re: Visa Success At Last!
The father went back to Vietnam last week after nearly 3 weeks of sitting indoors with a hat, coat and gloves on - we took him to London to catch his flight and spent 3 extortionately priced days there. Must be high in the rankings for most expensive city in the world.
Anyhoo, BF and myself just getting on with life - he is starting some study tomorrow to keep him occupied and with a view to future prospects.
Seeing an immigration lawyer on Tues to ascertain what options if any exist to keep him here
Re: Visa Success At Last!
Thanks for the update.
This post will be of interest to people out there with plans to bring their partner into the west.
Looks like my fears that the Scottish ladies would move in on him were groundless.
Probably proves that they get good and regular service from their own Scotch Jocks.

He must be adapting to the grim weather surprisingly well.
After returning to the southern parts of the UK from Thailand in the new year, I'm reviewing my finances to ascertain what options exist for keeping myself in SE Asia for all of next winter.
Re: Visa Success At Last!
Yeah he acclimatised after a week - even allowing for the snow

What are you on about? I was providing a loose translation of MiniMee's Vietnamese post (#107): Độc lập. Sự tự do. Hạnh phúc
