Thanks everyone for the wishes, it was a great day yesterday, in fact the best day of the year
To be honest, I did not expect ND to approve us this fast, especially after the dragging they did earlier with our PPR. This was such a nice surprise.
I've now got the tickets booked too. I'm so glad the deals are still on for end May and the price hasn't skyrocketed, although the one way for my wife is a little expensive as we are returning in early June. But still, overall I paid the same amount altogether that I would have had to pay just for myself had I gone in July
Now I hope my wife gets the Passport back with visa soon, before I get on that plane to India.
