Oh no I'm really sorry to hear this Rosie!
I agree with Ellie, they will need a bit of time for the dust to settle, they must be gutted as well.
And the house price rise will doubtless affect them as well so it is very difficult.

Sorry to hear Rosie, having followed your move from posts last summer this latest stress must be frustrating.
Hope it works out ok soon!0 -
Have you heard any more on their plans?0
