How cheering.
Not sure about the correctness of the Russian - i *really* miss my dictionary. I actually have a Russian phrasebook for you (i inherited it from Anna) which i was going to give you last weekend - i *told* you i had forgotten something.
The extra £80 is because the fee has an exponential increase depending on how late you get the application in (ie. next thursday is two days before my flight, so i have to pay much more to get the visa before i leave.) which is bloody annoying. The person in the GUM clinic was even more amused, i think, at the fact that this is my *second* hiv test in six months, and there is a 99.99% chance that it will *also* be negative.
I don't know when Pasha will get round to writing his damned paper (though i have asked him - he is now talking about repeating the year... useless!) and i am not sure about what he thinks about your opinion of him (though he knows far too much about what we were up to in 2001!)
What the hell?!?!?! Origami X-Wing?!?!?!?
Anyhow, i'm slightly more cheerful today. And at least this time my hand hasn't swollen where she stuck the needle in, even though Charlotte felt the need to whack it. Ouch.
Thanks for caring - and do some Russian, missy!
