wherefore art thou, visa?

if you were wondering when F@head and i are due to head off on our SK adventure - you'd be in the same boat as us.

to update you on the status thereof:

• employment contracts signed and returned: check
  
• visa papers sent back and forth and back and forth (whilst DHL throws it head back in a guttural laugh and rubs it's fattening wallet):  check
• resignation from SA jobs: check
• cancellation of lease for chateau du F@head: check
• selling of the Astra-nomical: in progress
  
• transfer of pension policies, cancellation of contracts and accounts: in progress

looking pretty on track, right?  i suppose, it's not bad.  there's nothing to panic about. unless you consider things that haven't happened yet

• visa codes issued (passports then need to get to PTA, have visa's installed and then get back down to us)
• car sold
  
• travel/medical insurance
• back-packs and snow jackets purchased
• ability to speak fluent Korean
• moving / storage booked
• flights booked
• departure date confirmed

and all this, during the highly productive festive season.
Ag ja  - it's not that bad.  we are only due to start working in SK 40 days from now.

CALM DOWN already!
