Will this never end?

The Lis' solicitor is now out of town, without having told any of us that he was on holiday this week. No wonder he started returning everyone's calls and acting like he gave a shit at the end of last week. He told us we should be good to exchange on Tuesday... of course he knew it wasn't going to be his responsibility by then. The guy who's taking over for him regarding this transaction is in a nieghbouring city. So the contract that Mr. Li dropped off this morning now has to wing its way to Barnet before we can exchange.

I am ill with rage.

Of course we can't expect anything useful out of our solicitor because he just got back from holiday. Catriona, who was looking after our side of this sale while he was gone, is no longer helping us and Alan doesn't know what's going on.

So we're vulnerable, and surrounded by the utterly useless. And if we exchange before the end of the day (yeah right) it'll be a miracle and even then we won't be able to get the keys to the apartment until tomorrow. Getting the movers on Thursday will be a bit of a stretch, and on Friday or over the weekend it's out of the question. So it's looking like the movers won't be coming until the beginning of next week. Yet another week has slipped by.

I'm so tired of this.
