No exchange today. The builder still isn't finished.

There are no words....

(It turns out that when I'm really furious, that I do lots of laundry and aggressive dish washing. Poor Speck must be wondering when his/her mummy will ever be happy again.)

Well, the cynical side of me says that the vendors don't want to pay for the work that I am forcing them to do. Therefore they are hoping that we will exchange with the work incomplete and leave us with the bill and a builder still fucking tramping around. I bet they won't even run a hoover round to clear up the mess.

The non-cynical side of me says that builders always say that they'll be finished and never are.

At any rate, I won't exchange contracts until the work has been completed satisfactorily. Much safer that way. It's just a real time crunch now, as we have to move on Mon/Tues due to the movers being booked up till the 1st of June :(

Hey, me and Dave can pack up, fly over and do the work! That's what engineers are for, to fix things ;)

Makes sense - but DAMN, two weeks. Hold on there. It will all be allright, I'm sure of it.

That sucks, Ang.

[sends, "Hurry the fuck up, you bastards!" vibes at the builders]

Erm, maybe I should be more polite with those vibes. Catching more flies with honey and all that, right?

They appear to have hurried up. We've just exchanged contracts. Now I'm trying to activate my buildings insurance :)
