Patience kiddles, remember you had New Years in there. Also remember
those folks in some other less speedy consulates. I saw posters during
the last year who literally waited weeks and even months for their cases
to be acted on even once they got out of NVC . You've got London and
unless they do a complete 360 it won't be that long. Most importantly
you are in the home stretch.
