Worked from then onwards full time on my very own NI card and paying tax (MORE THAN 20 HRS) for 3 years ataleast.
Met my partner in 2010.Got married in Jersey(they didnt need the COA) Then.
Had a recommendation for a solicitor from this forum as I was not in uni and working more than 20hrs then Till September 2011
Got married December 2010,visa was expriring 0ctober 31st 2011
Advice was to apply 2 weeks before the end of my 4 years visa AS THIS GUARANTTED ME A RIGHT TO APPLEAL INCASE MY APPLICATIN WAS REJECTED- and stopped working a month before(ie September 2011) My solicitor made the application

You say you got flr(m) but then in your post make it seem like you got ILR?

I think you're confusing the two. In two years time you'll be applying for ILR.

Excuse my mistake(probably too much excitment)
Yes i got the 2 year Residence permit and will be able to apply for ILR after 2 years
