Just scraping under 180 days per year limit!! I am ass...

Unfortunately most of the travel was in 2010 and 2011.

I have been in the UK since Jun 2007 on tier 2 inter company transfer. My work required extensive travel, especially in 2010 and 2011. In past five years (Dec 2007 to now) I had about 500 days away from the UK, 370 days on business trips and about 130 days on paid leave. I still have tier 2 permit u...
