    She has now suggested that we set a deadline for exchange to focus minds as the next step, and reduce our offer if exchange doesn't happen by that date. She has already told the seller that she doesn't think she'd get the same price again now.

    Robbie's like an estate agent whisperer I swear, we actually get on really well with her. She's also buying a place at the moment so they have phone calls bitching about other people's solicitors, lol.
