So we were told yesterday that the Lis were going to make an appointment with their solicitor to sign the contract, so that when the local searches came in, it would be ready to exchange.
Today, we're told that their solicitor has posted it to them for them to sign and then post back. On a Friday they do this. On a bank holiday weekend. James informs me that it's common practice for solicitors' offices to be closed on the Tuesday after a bank holiday Monday.
So now we're looking at next Wednesday at the earliest.
GRRRRR.
