The water stopped rising - at 3:00 am it had come up by about another inch, some of our neighbours were less lucky, it just reached some front doors and one neighbour told my wife it had come in his airbricks and he had fouls water below the floorboards - nasty, but not as bad as it could be. We got away with just sewage in the front gaarden where the drains backed up. I fear the solicitor's response was 'buyer is not aware' - that phrase rings a bell. And from some of teh letters that came I doubt the vendor had many assets... More cross with myself for not asking more questions They finally closed the road last night, before any of the idiots caused a crash. It only opened at 5:00 this afternoon, and is still down to one lane. Thanks again for all good wishes. Neil.
