Just thought I would stop by and update you all with our neighbour dispute as you have been so helpful (esp carrust, zacsmaster and parrafin and barmaid)

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Law/Question764 080.html Well - the awful old neighbours have appointed a solicitor who wrote to the surveyor to tell him to tell me not to speak to them or visit their property. The surveyor has been dis-instructed too as his work is now finished and its just down to us to negotiate a price to pay them.
The solicitor seems to have 'dropped' them like a hot potato and nothing has been heard from him for weeks - and I have not been told I am now allowed to speak to them.
They have paid for their entire house to be re-dec'd inside and out at a cost of about �6000. Of which we are only liable for part decoration but have no idea how much as they never supplied quotes. The exterior was done by a rip off company who sent in a hefty sales guy to talk them into doing the work (�3300 for cash apparently!!!! so no vat paid).
They are completely bonkers and have broken every agreement and contract put in place - so I firmly believe we will not actually have to pay them anything now!
The woman keep trying to catch me on my way to work in the car in the driveway - no idea why - as I'm not allowed to speak to her and so wont!
Its just all mad - but I am much happier and less stressed now as I know that the problem is with them and not us. Thanks to you all for your advice in the past. Its giving me less sleepless nights now.. no idea when it will end - when they drop dead probably! Hey ho
