Still Waiting!!

I have sat glued to my computer all morning waiting for that magical email from the DCSF, and wearing out my "send and receive" button!! I finally gave in and rang them as soon as their phone line opened. Only to be told it won't go today!!! I am so frustrated, I asked the lady who answered how it could take so long?? We were third in the queue over a week ago and still it hasn't gone!!! She said she understood my frustration (YEAH right!!!) but that "send to country" wasn't being worked on today and we are now top of the list and should (!!!!) go tomorrow. I can't take much more of this!!!!!!
