Hi Hugo, Many thanks for the information. Do you know anyone who has had the operation done in BA that could speak to the cost, etc.? Phillip.

Dear BA Expats, I'm only a few weeks away from landing in BA; the excitement is setting in. :-) There's a long list of things that I'd like to accomplish before I leave, and I'm starting look at what I can take off the list and do in BA instead. One of the pressing to-do items is having my...
