Have been sitting around in a state of agitation, waiting for news. It was suggested that we exchange on the 21st October, but that's only a bit over a week away and looks very unlikely now. So far I've been working on the principle of 'no news is good news' but today I'm thinking that if you just sit back and wait, nothing will ever happen.
The vendors obviously feel the same because the estate agent rang today prompted by the vendors, asking if we know what's happening. So it's obvious. You have to get on the phone and pester the hell out of the solicitors. If there's only us and the vendors in this chain and it's taking forever, how long would it take if there were three or four parties in the chain?
Hugh said I shouldn't email Mrs vendor, but I did anyway. She was really nice, I liked her a lot when I met her a while ago, and she emailed back, obviously relieved that we still want Crossways, but frustrated like us, at the lack of communication. I might suggest she get on the phone and pester the hell out of her solicitor...
