We have been to see the Solicitors and have signed the contact to purchase the land. The lawyers are still working on access to water but it all looks good and we should have in within a week or two.
The lawyers seem to have made some mistakes the diagrams of the land were incorrect and they seem to think we were buying more land, than we were.
The lawyers also recommended that we not put the land into trust just yet. No need too.
I also rang Leisha and gave her an update.

29th October
I was expecting a call or letter from the solicitors last week but have hear nothing. I decide to give them a call and it turns out they were about to send me a letter. The letter would have contained a request for me and my wife to go to the office and sign the docs. We are going to go tomorrow at 9:30 to sign etc.
The land is almost out and the Orchard will soon be planted.

22nd October
The person selling the land called she wants me to push the solicitors so I gave them a call, they are waiting on the results of the search and the the sellers solicitors have send the wrong invoices "Something to do with VAT".
I called the North Warwickshire County council they have not sent me anything ablout planning permission. They gave me a call later and have assured me that no planning permission is required.
I have also received a letter from them when I got home, confirming that I do not need planning permission for the orchard.
The council have also checked the land to make sure that no archaeological stuff is beneath the land.

I have been looking at which Cherry trees to plant. We have a selection and also what root stock. Many of the newer hybrid trees are smaller and easier to pick.
Should I go with more traditional trees that would grow very tall and mean that picking would be difficult meaning much of the crop would be enjoyed by birds.
