Well,
It’s been almost a year since we signed for the house – and still no signs that we’ll be in before the end of the month.
Spoke to the foreman on Thursday evening … young fella, not really confidence inspiring either … especially when I asked him why we still hadn’t been asked in to snag yet, despite a promise we’d be in three weeks ago (and originally in Januray !). His reply was “Things don’t always go to plan.”
Um yeah – No sh1t ! – so I asked him what went wrong, and explained that Sinead needs to be in before September 1st (being a teacher it’d help somewhat to be in the same county as the school) … so we should be snagging in about 10 days time (The painters are due to go in this week … then it *should* be okay …
(I still wonder how it takes a team of professional painters a week to paint a 1000sq.ft. house in “Dulux Buttermilk” and white on the ceilings …)
