Too true!

I have all this yet to come. The last time we moved was bad enough. I've only just changed the address on one of my bank accounts!! (Not for want of trying, they kept messing it up!)

My out look now is NOT to worry! I am outta here next week. I have done all i can here. I have let everyone know a forwarding address and told them to send final bills there - I am damned sure the bills will arrive quicker than the rebates But Im going to concentrate on getting up and running our new life - this old one will sort itself out. You know what they say ...............

No wurries!!!!!!!!!!!!

ps - think the elephants were chocolate withdrawels!! just had a Boost and now feel fine again SEE!! chocolate really does cure all

They're all idiots! Try writing, one or two of them can read........................ If you try to do it over the phone they will only ask you to write anyway.

PMSL. We have the same problem, I open it now as most of it is junk mail. I have accidentally opened private mail too. I did reseal it and put it through their letter box marked 'opened in error'. Although I did mean to open it............

We have moved house 15 times in 20 years. Our post must be all over the UK!

i know my house doesnt look like we're going anywhere, im to much of a tidier changing date cos the original one was this friday and no way are bottom of chain going to be ready and also my buyer couldnt get time of work and also it works out better cause we wont be homeless for so long

it also turns out that we dont need the retrospective consent (we did planning permission but i had forgotten about the covenant on our deeds that said we needed council permission to build onto the house that we though we were missing for our extension - as it turns out it has already been done :no idea what is going on as we didnt do it so it must have been done as part of the normal planning permission?!!! Solicitor was as puzzled as we were!

anyway this all means that we are just waiting for our buyers to say they are ready to set a date - solicitor is going to chase them asap and get back to us.
sounds good
