I spoke to a solicitor in Saltcoats yesterday — from the firm Nellany & Co — and had a nice chat with Michael Nellany. He said he would contact the seller to request the same info that she’s sent us and will be in touch.

Meanwhile we’ve got the personal profile and business profile forms from the Royal Bank of Scotland to fill out. Hopefully the info from Janice will arrive today so that we can fill out the forms over the weekend.

Thankfully I spent a lot of time in the latter half of last year entering our financial info in Microsoft Money (which is rather a difficult piece of software to get to grips with), so I should manage to get all the info I need about income and expenditure fairly easily.

For now though, it’s back to the translation. 🙁
