Solicitors are usually the sand in the KY Jelly during the house-buying process. This is in no small part because conveyancing is very much the remedial class of solicitoring, so they’re only doing it because they’re shít.
That said, we had a splendid gay Greek last time who was constantly in the ball and got shít done. Even then, the buyers’ solicitor almost fùcked it up by lying about having transferred the funds, buggering off to lunch and then informing us they knocked off at four on a Friday. Cùnts.
