I think you did the right thing.0

It is beginning to sound as if your ex-vendor does not really want to sell at all. Think you may have dodged a bullet there... You do know guilt is a form of self indulgence, don't you? When has it ever helped the person "wronged"?0

I know - the guilt is easing thoughIt is beginning to sound as if your ex-vendor does not really want to sell at all. Think you may have dodged a bullet there... You do know guilt is a form of self indulgence, don't you? When has it ever helped the person "wronged"?
He has been selling bits of furniture etc, and packing, but the new issues that kept creeping up every visit were insurmountable for us in the end. I can see he might not want to sell as he and his wife lived there for 20 years and she died there. He might have thought he wanted to leave the memories but actually he can't. It's odd, he really seemed keen to sell until it came to the crunch and then he has been dragging his feet on the Deed of Easement, knowing it was the one thing that needed doing as we wouldn't exchange until it was sorted, for weeks if not months. SO maybe you are right. Maybe he really didn't want to sell. His loss in the end.“Isn't this enough? Just this world? Just this beautiful, complex
