Hi All,
It's been a while, everything is settleing down for good this time ?
Just a quick update, counceling is going along fine, we sold our house to the mad prick next door for 25,000 less than what we paid for it.
We did have other buyers wanting to purchase it for what we wanted to sell it at but they were scared off by NUTTER & HIS DOG CUJO.
30 day settlement, so I can't wait to see the bastards money in our account on the 30 of September.
Getting compensation for all our troubles and a letter has been sent to the state treasurer Mr Brumby by our Local Member Of Parliament ( Not holding my breath on getting the Stamp Duty Back or a rebate of some sort ) but you never know ( Thanks Glen for recommending to do this ) ( If I get it back I'll buy you a Lens )
We are now settled with nice neighbours either side renting for a while until we have enough nerve to purchase one day ?
Will keep you updated.
Cheers,
Mic.
( I have even done some Photography which I'll post some soon )

Mic,
It's gratifying to hear that this issue is slowly being resolved. Just take things easy, one step at a time, and everything will slowly come back together for you again.

Mic good to hear from you I'd been a bit worried and hoped you drop by and give us an update. Glad to hear things are improving but I can't believe that the dude next door is the guy buying the house, makes me further suspcious of his behaviour.
Anyways thanks for letting us know your ok, hopefully the goverment will suprise you and come through with the rebate. Take care!

Thanks guys,
Yes, slowly getting somewhere, I think
Yes Craig, very bloody sus ! but in the end his filthy money was as good as anybodies plus it stops a young family moving in and getting hurt.
$25,000 to have a free mind that this will not happen to anybody else that moves in next to this low scumbag, geeeez counselling is really helping me.
Good to have your thoughts and support.
Cheers,
Mic.

Sorry to hear about all your trials and tribulations mic, and glad things are looking up. Sounds like your ex-neighbour got what he wanted!
$25,000 is a lot of money, and I can't help thinking that $10,000 spent in another way could have got you a nice new next door neighbour, without you having to move
Cheers

Mic, great news and as Stubbsy said the counselling is better than a few beers at this stage. A big part of me agrees with digitor. Glad you are moving past it, as I say you cant buy back your youth again, $25k is chickenshit money compared to the grey hair and wrinkles it would have given you.

Thanks Guys,
You're a good bunch of people that I have never even met, yet I think of you as an extension of my family with good advice.
Cheers.
Mic.
