My partner was at work while he told me over msn messenger!!
He said: babe.... I have an email about the visa....
(way to keep it in suspense!)
My first thought was oh no, what do they want now...
and he said: I GOT IT!!!
I screamed with excitement called my mum and other family members back in australia to tell them the good news then I decorated the flat with a big congratulations sign, bought some moet & chandon champagne and waited till my partner came home from work when we then ordered a pizza and drank the champagne.
