The Temple of Bague Wasting bandwidth since 1997 - Now in our 27th wasteful year!

We’re really in the final throes of things. It’s entirely possible that we may have the visa granted in the next month. But with the house sale falling through, everything seems so very far off at the moment. For the prospective migrants that this site is aimed at, I just can’t describe what the waiting

I’m not sure I understand these dates at all. I guess they’re just a broad guideline – although these look fine, it appears the processing window has only moved forward three days at the front and one at the end, which is very slow progress. Still, it does seem to leap forward a fortnight every

There’s no good reason for this post, I’m just showing afriend how WordPress works.

It’s smaller, it’s lighter, it’s possible to hold for long periods of time without catching gamer-claw, it looks beautiful – not a million miles away from an iBook – the displays are brighter than the sun, and I love it to death. Yup – it’s birthday time, nelefans, and this year I have a nice

Now this is a bit more like it. I think we can expect to be allocated a case officer in the next week or two. So at least we’re getting somewhere. I’m sure the Australian government make the migration process deliberately painful to cut down on timewasters I wish the same could be done with

Anyone would think we never actually do anything cos the only time I ever post on here is about video games. Fair enough, we don’t do an awful lot, granted, but we do occasionally do some stuff that involves actually being outside and things. For example: This weekend, we mainly worked on the garden. Our

Ok, so those counters at the top of the page there are quite scary. Over a year since starting out and almost seven months since actually lodging the application. What this means, in real terms, is that we’re only a couple of weeks away from a decision being made, one way or the other. Sure,
