SOLICITARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHS!
I may be forced to drive to Whitley Bay to behead my solicitor this afternoon as he has decided to be a monumental cunt regarding exchange/completion on our house. His being pedantic could stop the chain moving on Friday, purely out of spite

I have 4 coffees from our secret santa at work. Best/worst presents from work?

He threw his toys out of the pram the other week regarding us speaking to them
Apparently us ringing our solicitors to ask where the sales was at was not necessary, as they would inform us, despite actually never ringing or emailing...
My fault, obviously

Take it to the Property partner expressing your concerns as to the progression of the matter, particularly as the solicitor dealing with it is refusing/unwilling to speak to you as a matter of professional courtesy or otherwise. Copy him in to all e-mails
Also seek confirmation of the firms complaints policy and procedure.

I once cycled into a rozzer when drunk.
He was very gracious about it but insisted that I walk the rest of the way. Then caught me trying to get back on round the corner and gave me a bollocking. Then we had some hunny. The End. Needs more bommyknocker.
