Bit better now

I just emailed the visa officde (useless, they won't reply but made me feel better) and the overseas fieldwork office people to see if, and when I will get any money from either.

I soooo need the money from the overseas fieldwork people. That will cover my flight and my rent while I am away. I have horrific debts and am really scared about being broke in India - especially as DB, who carries me in the UK while I am doing this, is taking an enormous paycut and coming with.

I have been quite a fool as I didn't realise the OFA was discretionary - in our student handbook I am sure it comes accross like that is what you get. And my research now differs to the original proposal but with darned good reason. But I didn't have room to explain that. Maybe I should have sent a supporting letter anyway. Oh dear. I just want to know!
