That’s a shock. All a bit of a rush for you. I suspect they’ve had a cancellation and are bringing him forward to fill the gap. Hope all goes well. Keep us posted.

Well, unlike the traffic it’s certainly not moving slowly for him with QE! Hope everything goes well with the tests.

Thats great news.

I appreciate things may be moving quicker than you expected, but thats a good thing.

I think the assessment will start at 9am so that's one I would book a hotel or b&b the night before for. It'll end up being a very long day otherwise.
