At Last….

Hello All, Val here,

My first post on this site.  Just to let everyone know I am now the proud owner of a ‘Permanent Residency Visa’, at long last…..

No Baby Yet

Still waiting for this baby to appear.

Also my Mum arrives on the 14th so at this rate Val might still be in the hospital when she gets here.
