Am very happy to have found this new thread - thanks a mill to SB for keeping me informed! :A
I never posted much but have been rooting for you all the way Mike. I haven't heard anything since just before the programme was being made so I have a lot of catching up to do. Is your house all nice now? And what's the latest on pursuing the rogue builder?
Can't wait to see the programme!:jTrying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

Hi Nuala
Good to see you again.
The house is very nice now. More importantly, they did the nasty stuff as well as the pretty stuff, so it should last another 300 years or so.
I haven't been able to engage in any legal matters until the programme is broadcast, but I Have A Number Of Options that I shall begin exploring. Starting tomorrow night actually!
Enjoy the show... and try the popcorn.

I have a reminder set for the programme (have been checking it regularly and was afraid I'd missed it), popcorn and giant mug of tea on standby!
Good luck with those Options - will be cheering you on from the sidelines!

I will be doing savoury popcorn as it's quite low in calories. With a side order of Swaledale and Stilton cheeses, just to get them out of the way you understand [IMG]http://smileys.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!/cat/12/12_12_7.gif[/IMG][IMG]http://smileys.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!/cat/12/12_12_7.gif[/IMG][IMG]http://smileys.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!/cat/12/12_12_7.gif[/IMG]:)
Can't wait to see your Options MikeA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Although I'm guessing it won't be "Pass me the shovel please MatyMoo" or "could you put the kettle on Pyschopathbabble?" ... would make for very funny viewing though! :rotfl:
Oh that would be soooo good!
I'm off on my travels now but will be with you all in spirit and if I'm not watching there will have to be a seriously good reason.
Mike, - good luck with your 'options' - though considering all you've accomplished to date, I fully expect you not to need it and to be sending you congratulations at some point.
Oh, and mind if I try a handful of that popcorn before I go? Can't resist it.Save me a virtual seat on the (somewhat overcrowded) sofa.:)
