    Josh/Denise, we should meet up, hopefully Niall will be home in about a month or so. I was telling him that another couple from Vj was living in the Charlotte area, and that you were from his area of Cork just topped it off. There are lots of nice places to go to and meet up at, and we are about 5 minutes off I-77 in the Statesville area so getting to Charlotte is only about a 35 minute drive.

    Collen, that was one of the things that we did when Niall initially came over, we ordered Fox soccer, but we got the package, it came with Setanta as well. Tho we dont watch Chelsea matches :P . We have our own feud going.....hes a Tottenham fan and I am an Arsenal fan.......needless to say we can have our moments.

    Hi Josh, welcome, my hubby is a Cork man as well (ballinlough, blackrock areas). We live not far from you now, we are a little north on the map, just above Lake Norman. We used to drive down to Charlotte on sundays so he could play on a football league. He misses his Irish food but adjusted ok to American food, it helps that Mum sends over stuff and brings plenty when she comes for visits! (Colleen, OMG the first time I had a HobKnob I was hooked) So again Welcome, glad to see that we got plenty of Irish on the board and Cork couples at that!

    We are currently waiting on an interview, our case was just sent to the embassy today so hopefully hubby will be home soon!

    Have a safe and wonderful trip dani_christine!!!!

Lets get some more approvals for the K visas this week and speedy NVC traffic!!!!

    Colleen, I am soooooo happy for ya girl! I know you must be over the moon. What a nice idea about the food. You can check and see if there is a Whole foods market in your area, someone from here gave me the website and now I cant find it, maybe ask in OT. My mum in law sent us some foods from an irish food website during christmas, it was nice, ofcourse it was my first go at black and white pudding, but the sausages and rashers were good quality and they have a host of other foods. Kerry Gold butter, brennan's bread, bisquits (I recommend McVities, but I like the hobknobs..Ha ha) and all sorts of other foods. Good luck on the shopping and congrats again on the homecoming!

    Zam, you can call the NVC at the following number (603)334-0700. They will issue it a case number and do some security checks on your petition and once it has passed (they will say 2-4 weeks) sometimes it is shorter and sometimes longer depending if your names "hit" in thier screening. If everything goes smoothly it will be off to the embassy and they will send you So the packages they will need for thier interview. If i missed anything here someone will be along to correct me or add to it. By the way when you call NVC you will need to opt to speak to a live operator, (option 5) as that is how you get info on your K-3. Good luck and best wishes for a speedy journey!!

    YAYYYYY!!!! NVC has our K-3! Hopefully it will be on the way to the embassy very soon! Oh and by the way, I rang the embassy in Dublin (anyone who will use them) and they are really nice. The woman was so helpful in telling me all the things we will need to be prepared. Good luck to everyone going thru this process!
