still waiting!!!
cannot beleive what happened in the end yesterday:mad::mad::mad:
all contracts were released for exchange and our solicitor missed the time deadline!! no explanation or anything so sat waiting to see if anything gets done first thing, we are soooo mad about this and god only knows how everyone else is feeling whos involved in this too (the ftb's on our house and the couple who's house we're buying, i thought we'd gone with a really good solictors group but having my doubts now but will see how they do today before i start bad-mouthing them lol.
on as plus note got a lovely rebate from tax credits into my bank account so if everything goes pear shaped for tomorrow at least i have cancellation fee to pay removal company:eek:
