Wow - what has happened! Admittedly I await the written confirmation but not a 'letter in triplicate required' in sight... ..is this a presage of revival?

I don't quite understand the answer, but I think I'm free of having to pay them anything until July. This must be due to the immense amount I paid them last year, and is a bit of a relief I must say. I'm very tired now after an evening of wailing 'well if that goes in box 3.24, where does the baroque bow and the 52 miles to Frome and back fit??' K. Done the bugger!

I thought I'd lost half the necessary paperwork, but it's OK. It was in the room I expected, just a different pile - between an old amazon box and Delia's 'How to Cook'. Which makes me wonder what exactly was distracting me last time I went through this process a year ago. Oh - and I got all filled with righteous anger earlier cos the online form was down, and I thought they'd have to give me an extension as it was their fault... but it's up again now and apparently I am 15% completed. Only the complicated bit to go then...! K. I’ve started.
