Ive not applied since Izzy had hers, so 2 years ago...it came back really quick IIRC was about 3 weeks - but can take longer - there is no guessing really!

The last time I applied was when I got married nearly 5 years ago and I think it was only a matter of weeks but it is busier this time of year but hopefully it should be well back before you go away xx

I think Imogen's took 2weeks. That was in May 2010. I got mine in about a week in Oct 2009. They say it gets busier in Summer but I can't imagine it will be more than 5wks.

We did Lilys this year and we sent it off 4 weeks before our hols as we booked last minute. I was crapping it that it would not be in time and it was back within a week! I reckon it'll only be a couple of weeks xx

shouldnt be long hun and if they took the money id say that was a good sign,
at work ours take 2/3 weeks and we have to send all sorts of court documents so a nightmare to sort.
as i said yo can always call and fast track it if its taking too long
