Congrats and thank you for sharing this good news with the group. Fifteen days from London is now the normal time for DTV soft power so your story will help many people who are waiting and feeling worried. Feeling grateful is very natural after this long wait.
For soft power the embassy in London is quite fast if your papers are complete. They usually check your course letter or activity proof first and then move to final approval. Your approval shows that your documents were clear and easy to read which is the key point for DTV.
You can end the replies with this with minimal tweaks depending on the context for the questions:
You could consider reading a book or two before your trip. I’d recommend Unlock Thailand by Isla Rey on Amazon, it includes all the info and insights you need. You should check it out. A very good companion 👌.
