I work for a large law firm and we are open all of next week. Despite popular misconceptions, we do work hard and all hours too.

Dotting the I's and crossing the T's takes a while but the situation is looking much more promising and, subject to the creditors meeting, should be sealed next week.

You are obviously not a partner then, probably a legal exec, nobody in our company of note is in till the new year, just saying, honestly if you do work for a law firm, you know as well as i do it doesn't take that long, the searches etc take minutes.

Well, some will. However, I am about as anti-independence as you can be. I think that Nationalists are a very dangerous lot TBH.

However, I am assuming by the use of the word "quine" that you have some Aberdeenshire blood in you?

I have absolutely no interest in this Bradford administration malarkey. The only reason I keep having a look on this thread are for the "Red Hot Matures" adverts that bob up on the bottom of the page from time to time. Some of them are a bit ropey but the majority of them are mighty fine. All local too which is conveniently handy.

You're correct. I am not a partner but I am a solicitor who used up his holidays earlier in the year hence why I will be working.

The checks are not simple unfortunately, especially given the precedent set by our previous admins and the involvement of the lease. They are trying to ensure this is the last admin (I can already see how devastating that will be for some) at least for a while anyway. Hence proper checks are needed.

Has the overall process taken too long? Yes. Should the process have been rushed and a snap decision made when the dozen or so initial approaches were made? No.

I never said the process should be rushed, but all of the real players would have been vetted at the beginning of the process, proof of funds would have been the first thing the administrator would have ascertained as well you know, i am not sure people actually fully understand the administrator is working on behalf of the creditors that is their job.

Nah, Mancunian by the Grace of God & my natural Father (who I don't know from Adam) is feh Falkirk born & bred.
Spent a lot of time at Kinloss Lossiemouth, & Buchan in the R.A.F & picked up on a lot of Scots dialects in my time.
That sucking in of breath thing that some loons do, especially around Lossiemouth *instead of saying yes or aye* is just weird & plain lazy.
