At Last!!!!!!!!!

ITS HERE!!!!


Well after what feels like an eternity waiting to hear our fate at precisely 4:11 pm this afternoon we received the news we'd been waiting for.  Service Canada have issued Nigel a positive LMO letter which will allow us to head to a border immigration office to have our work permits processed and issued.  Nigels boss rang yesterday to say that they had submitted the application and that they had spoken to Service Canada (SC) and they assured them that they would review the application as soon as possible.  Then early this morning Nigel received another phone call from one of his bosses to say that they'd had a call from SC in order for them to discuss the application and that they would hear before the end of the week what the outcome would be.

Obviously we were really nervous, so didn't want to get anyones hopes up by giving them the latest news until we knew for sure.  Nigel had decided to go out o0n the bike and on checking his cell phone on his ret
urn he noticed a missed csll from each of his bosses, a voicemail and text asking him to call them back.  Not knowing whether it will be good news or bad news he rang them back, only to be told that they had received a fax of a positive LMO.  

I am writing this before we head out into Downtown for a few celebratory drinks, then its off down south to the US border early next week to activate our work permits.  So a big thank you to all of those that have been crossing various body parts, it obviously worked, and to all of you that have been waiting to book flights, get booking cause it looks like we're staying!!!!
