Hello all, most of you probably won’t know what I’m on about but for those of you that do, I feel that I owe you an explanation. A friend alerted me to a few threads where I’d been called a troll etc.

I’ve been through a very long process with NDN about the doors (which I had been told were going to be replaced/ wall reinstated etc)

I had also been told by my lawyer that all was fine.

The planning dept have been on my side, as per all previous threads.

This all seemed to be going ahead until I returned home to find half of my flat wall caved in.

I had to move out to stay with a friend. The whole thing has been a total nightmare and it is still not resolved. My wall has been partially fixed, the patio doors remain and no one has seen hide nor hair of NDN or the builders for months.

My flat is now uninhabitable for the foreseeable and there are legal implications, planning laws and listed building laws which all have to be agreed and adhered to before anything will be done, apparently.

This may be terribly outing but I am beyond caring. I was told not to post on here, however, the advice I received was second to none and so I thank you all for that.

My grandma has been unwell so I have been back and forth to Spain, seems like all is against me!

Sorry I disappeared for so long, but you can imagine how awful it has been, I’m in a better place now, so thought it was time to come back and let you know that I’m not some fantasist making up stories about doors 😂

Hope to see some familiar names on the thread!

How awful for you. I remember losing several days reading your posts but had hoped it all was sorted out, hence you not posting for so long. I'm so so sorry to hear all you've been through in the last few months x

What about your insurance company? They will surely sort out who is liable or not.

That is what insurance is for I would have thought.

Oh goodness! I posted on your previous threads under another username. I can't believe this has happened!

How much is it going to cost to shore up your property?

Oh watty I followed all 10 previous threads and just assumed you'd been told to stop posting as it was quite identifying. Can't believe it's all got so much worse.

Oh my goodness Watty - I was a proper lurker although I couldn't keep up with all the posts but I am so sorry to read about your lovely SpanGran being poorly and the wall Shock. I will no doubt go back to lurking but just sticking my head above the parapet to mainly wish SpanGran a speedy recovery and hope for better things for your poor flat soon x

I think they’ve gone beyond cheeky fuckery Watty, there are other c based words that might come into play now.
