I know its moving slightly off thread but I would like to say thank you to Hamlet, we are in the middle of moving within the UK and at the moment I feel very frustrated, its only a short chain, the two people who need mortgages have had and accepted their offers, the surveys are all done, yet the legal work takes forever, and why do my solicitors, who are 3 minutes away, keep writing to me when they have my e-mail address. Don't solicitors know everything is meant to be quicker and easier with the technology available now. Sorry needed to get that off my chest!! Anyway thanks Hamlet your words have put things into perspective (a bit) x
