Been out of the UK for 10 years or so. Back home now and have finally
bought
a "dodgy" house whose owner died "intestate" 18 months ago. Whatever
history
the house had has been ignored by the sellers. It was obviously "raided"
for
many of it's fittings and fixtures and leaves many secrets unanswered. I
have watched this site for over 3 months while the solicitors and others
get
their share of this sale and I have observed a lot of both good and bad
advice given here. I just wish to thank those who "jump-in" with the
correct
advice to counter the "bad & dangerous" advice given by some of the
cobblers
that are also here. The house purchase is now complete and I will now
enter
this site with a lot of what may seem to be "dumb" questions. Those of you
who offer the correct (and educated) advice should realise that your
"uninvited" comments are ESSENTIAL to people like me and should never
hesitate to jump-in to the conservation. Those of us who really need to
know
appreciate your help more than you realize. Please also realise that some
of
us don't know all that we think we know. Again--A special thanks to those
of
you who are qualified to help those of us who have lost track of the state
of change in the UK for the past 10 years. Give me a week or so to get
moved
in to this house and I'll be back with a load of serious questions you can
help with. OldRedneck thanks you.



Welcome OldRedNeck. Good luck in your new home Sir.
