We had this with our move.
We had everything packed and the movers waiting to leave before we could confirm where they were actually taking our stuff. It turned out one of the sellers had posted his contract using second class mail.
In the end our solicitor pushed theirs to exchange and complete simultaneously without the contract having arrived, which apparently is possible if the funds have already cleared.
Fingers crossed!

Just jaw on the floor stuff, that. Though to be fair I've never worked with a solicitor who didn't ask for the contract (unsigned) to be returned months in advance. I returned mine back in May!
Thanks for kind words @Sumo. This thread and the people in it are keeping me sane.
Ish.

We're 48 hours away from supposedly completing, and I just found out my buyer's solicitors do not yet have a signed contract or mortgage deed or deposit. I cannot book my movers until we have them. I am having a quiet panic attack.
