We've had quite a few PMs regarding our visa and what's going on now so I thought I'd do an update today.
After my interview & medical remember I was told I had to have the 1st dose of the Hepatitus B vaccine in order for the visa to be issued because I am under 19 years old. This caused much debate between my family and of course our friends here on VJ whether I actually "do NEED" this vaccine for the visa rather than AOS or not.
Origionally the lady at the Alliance Medical Center said I could have it done at my local GPs office. But apparently they don't have a stock of the vaccine but did "promise" to do there best and get back to me. Well they did get back to me eventually but
THANKS TO ANDREA here on VJ! Who so kindly PMed me with an address and telephone number of a lovely little medical place in Stockport I had already booked an appointment which was today. It was a good job too because 2 days after Andreas PM the GPs receptionist phoned back to say "they don't do it there." Well I already knew that! Some people....So I order the same ambulance company to take me to Stockport for a 5pm appointment. They were suppost to turn up at 4pm on the dot. They were 20 minutes late and the guy didn't know where he was going. So again like the day to London but to the outskirts of Manchester this time, the ambulance man jumped constantly in and out the vehicle every few miles to ask for directions to where this medical center was. Plus this man is quite old and drives at the pace of a tortoise. I swear he was waiting for the traffic lights to turn GREEN to start slowing down. Anyway it got to 5:20pm and apparently the medical center phoned up our house and my dad answered. Obviously worried where we got to. He phoned us to say that they were closing at 6pm. Panic! Not only were we now lost but it starts thunderstorming. We finally find the place at 6:10pm as the place was closing. We burst through the door to a startled receptionist cos we were dripping wet and let the wind/rain in the door.
She gave me a form to fill in which I didn't expect and I couldn't answer half the questions. GPs surgery address, telephone number, vaccination names and dates already recieved. I didn't have this on me and was kicking myself. Which was no point because when we were finally called in she didn't even look at it. She gave me the shot and rabbited on about how we held everybody in the center up and I felt so bad
. Saying people wanted to get home to their families its real late. 
though there was a part inside me that wanted to say back "WHAT DO YOU THINK IM HEAR FOR? I WANNA GO HOME TOO. " I mean I'm greatful they stayed open and all but this doc REALLY let me know how much of an inconvience it was for everybody. So much so most of the talk in the 10 minute period I was in the room was filled with her rabbiting on about it. Then I toss her the letter from the Alliance Medical Center saying they need confirmation that I have this jab from them and she stares at me and saying "We closed our fax machines etc down." She was about to hand it back to me when I ever so kindly suggested she do it another day. It didn't matter WHEN it just mattered that it was done. She hesitently accepted my suggestion, gave me a HEP B sideeffects sheet and we left.
So now we're at the stage where all that needs to be done is her confirmation sent to London, and London sending it to the Embassy then....
