We haven't been to fussed so far about the fact that André was having a hard time reaching G.C. He'd go silent for a couple of weeks, but then re-emerge with a reason for the silence. The first time, it was an illness in the family. Fair enough - everyone has their own problems to deal with, it was just (from our own purely selfish point of view) rubbish timing. But in any case, we are still dealing with the Party Wall Agreement, not to mention awaiting Planning Permission for our proposed design and the final structural drawings from the engineer - so we wouldn't have been able to start construction anyway.
But it happened again - another long silence from G.C., and then the excuse that he had been ill. Now, I'm always one to give people the benefit of the doubt... but this is starting to look extremely suspicious. It has been next to impossible to reach the guy for nearly two months now! And even when André does get him on the phone, he won't commit to any specific dates in terms of coming over to get things going. I'm really starting to think that there's something awry here - and I'm starting to lose my patience...
