So very close...

Anyone from the UK want to marry me?

I've just been checking out my visa possibilities - I have 90 points, out of a necessary 95.
Which means I am 5 points off getting a highly skilled migrant visa for England next year. 5 points!

This does not seem fair.

Looking into it, the only ways I can increase my points are:
a) get a PhD
b) get experience working in the UK (without getting a visa beforehand...)
c) convince my boss to pay me more money

Personally, I think it'll be a lot easier if I just circumvent the whole process by marrying someone with a British passport, and get my visa the old-fashioned way...
So: I'm young, I'm attractive, and I know how to cook. Any takers?

You would find laundry rooms in newer, or bigger, British houses, but the older/smaller ones tend not to have them, hence all the appliances being in the kitchen.

We would probably think of a house with a separate laundry as being rather posh.

Whereas we'd think of a flat (a flat - you'd NEVER get a house like that) without a laundry as being rather insanely small.
