Painting a shop front today and two different ladies took my card and asked if I could come round and paint their windows. Are they just trying to trap me into some modern slavery? One of them said she had a painter but he vanished and all his gear is still in her house. Yes, I know they're milkmen but Monty Python didn't do a sketch about painters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another possibility is that his clothes are the exact same colour as the walls he has painted and her eyesight isn't good enough to see that he is actually still there!

BFTD Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Anyone have a recommendation for horseradish sauce? I just bought some awful Polish Smak stuff that tastes like flavoured mayonnaise.As with onions and women, I like my horseradish strong enough to grievously hurt me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the "liquid" part that I'm not sure about although parsley sauce doesn't sound too bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scosha Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Currently in the process of buying a flat, but date of entry isn’t until the summer. My solicitor is taking days if not weeks to respond to emails and seems to have no urgency to complete the missives. Is it possible to change your solicitor at this point? Has anyone on here done it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's standard solicitor response times, particularly in these times mist of the firm will be furloughed. What would you be needing an update on? Are you sure whatever is needing done is at your solicitors end? Are the land searches complete, has their solicitor done everything? I wouldn't prioritise a client whose date of entry was weeks away either TBH. If you have had an offer accepted changing is going to leave you thousands out of pocket and potentially having to start again from scratch depending on how far along you are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The process is fairly simple, see a house, bid on it, hire a solicitor, sign some forms. The actual legal stuff (missives, exchange of letters) is done between the 2 solicitors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
