Is it bad news?

It will have to calm down. These things go in waves. When we're talking about a vendor 'choosing' a buyer we know things have become ridiculous and that a swing is due. 

I really hope it happens soon.

That should have been expected questions not speared - sorry.

and honestly the estate agent won’t bat an eyelid,  you need to push.  I am selling my house and the estate agents are really busy at the moment, so you need to press for information.  

Will do!! Trying to call them this morning as apparently they are open.

Good luck - hopefully only a minor hiccup.

come back and update us.

We called the EA yesterday and she said not to worry and that the vendor was actively looking for a property but said that maybe we should keep looking ourselves. I kind of took that to be a nice way of saying that the vendor will likely be pulling their property from the market. It’s such a shame as there is a huge void of properties with what we were looking for now and before we had our offer accepted there were quite a few we would have gone for. 

Sounds like the vendor saw a property they liked but by the time they had an offer and were proceedable that property was SSTC and if they can't find another property they like they will stay put.
At least they have told you before you spend any money

Yeah. I can’t hold it against them as they have at least tried to warn us what may happen.
