A-R-R-R-R-G-H !!
This was my husband's reaction after getting off the phone with our estate agent in England. When the original completion date on the sale of our home passed merrily by, we immediately took action. Sadly, what with Easters holidays and illnesses, it took us nearly two weeks to make any headway. Today we learned that our buyer's buyer's solicitor neglected to do a required title search. Apparently everything else is in readiness. What a shock to us, not only to learn such negligence is possible but also that we are in a chain! Picture a pyramid of cheerleaders with one in the second row suddenly forgetting to hold up her arms. Look out below!
The good new is everything hasn't fallen into disarry. Completion has merely been delayed by about another two weeks. As far as we can tell, all those involved are still sporting the required team spirit.

I've never understood why buying and selling property in this country has to be so difficult! In Norway it was a far simpler process but it seems everybody wants a slice of the pie here and, because of that, odd slices go missing now and then. I'm not surprised your husband said Grrrrr! I'd have said the same thing.
Sorry... it was ARGGGGHHH he'd said, rather than GRRRRRR. And to be honest, I think I would have probably said something that the children perhaps didn't ought to hear. Your hubby must be a very controlled person :-)
Our daughter was in the room, so he tempered his outcry.
LOL. I'm glad to hear he's in possession of the required degree of self control :)
Seriously, I hope it all goes smoothly from hereon in.
