Taking the P155

I will admit, I've not ever used a fax machine, but I'm sure it doesn't take an hour and a half to send a fax! Now going to ring the solicitors and have a word! They will call me back, surprise!

**UPDATE** Spoken to the Estate Agent who is in contact with the sellers solicitor who have stated they are in talks with the sellers solicitors and it will be done very shortly! This was 40 minutes ago!

**UPDATE** Still no update. Contemplating telling them to shove it up their arses! Seen another place that isn't a repo and us chain free also. Could we pull out at this stage? Risky I know but this is a joke. It's sending a fax!

*Update* Just received call from mortgage adviser, underwriter has confirmed exchange today and completion Friday. Just need solicitors to do the same!

In the end, we exchanged contracts at 10 to 5. Turns out the repossession company then had to get confirmation from the bank the money was owed to. This took many attempts but was confirm at around half past four and exchange in the end happened. Completion Friday morning!

4 Day Weekend - Relaxing... For Most

I'm not going to start by saying the 4 day weekend hasn't been welcomed by most, myself included. In fact I, like many, have taken advantage of the 4 days off, booked 3 "standard" work days off and reaped the rewards of a 9 day holiday with a Jubilee 66% extra free! Fantastic!
