Sorted IMOs :-)


Went to the bank this morning, with a bit of trepidation as other people have had a lot of trouble getting hold of these from the banks - who don't like the fact that they are payable in US Dollars to a Chinese organisation. I had pre-checked with the bank earlier in the week (before payday!!) asking what the procedure for obtaining the IMOs was - and they said it would take 10 mins after a walk in request! And they were right!! Well almost right it took 20 mins!! Wow - great service :-)

I had the covering letter and envelope ready, with me, so went off to the Post Office to get them in the post (via Special Delivery - insured and guaranteed next day delivery). To then hit a snag!! Parts of Royal Mail are on strike today - just my luck!!! The lady behind the counter said that they are trying to get Special Delivery items out, but can't guarantee it will happen. So the letter and IMOs might reach DfES tomorrow or it might be Monday. Oh well - at least they are insured and out of my hands and almost on their way!!!
