Trevor and Jo,
Keep the faith we got like that and went through all the emotions aswell, I think it is luck of the draw as to how you move through the system, but I also believe certain consultants also carry a certain amount of clout. Ours took a considerable amount of time then went bang and things went quickly, and I don't think it is NOC related as Nursing would have come before mine.
You mention Jersey and Guernsey, having been there for work and the Isle of Man you have to gain work permits first to get there then you are restricted to a time limit before you can own a house, and some people can be the most racist you will encounter as you are not an islander, plus it is horrendously expensive.
Stay with the dream it will come through for you!
Thanks mate. Off on holiday next weekend for 15 days, hope we have some news when we get back, it should help being away and not constantly looking at ecas for an update. Thanks again Stuart. Trevor
Regards
Stuart
