    Default UPDATE - Re: advice please............. what would you do??

    well I didn't wait in nor did I get a call asking where i where or to tell me what going on..... therefore im assuming she no longer wants the space, would have been nice to have told me but hay ho, (rude in my book) so im calling her tonight stating to her something along the lines of " due to no response from recent messages left i am assuming that you no longer want the space, if this is not the case then please call me on *********** to conferem arrangements before pm on Saturday 25th July otherwise i will be offering it to another child....

    Of course you have!!!!! some parents think we are sitting around waiting for them to make a decision! NO!!!!!! even if you hadn't got someone else wanting the space she is taking her time and its only fair you should know one way or the other!!!

    I've done this before too. I often turn it around and say someone else has contacted me about the place, I wanted to give you first refusal so please contact me asap.

    I had someone ring me once after a month when I'd already filled the place and say they'd like it please!!

    Well done, have you heard anything back? The lack of manners around these days is appalling! I know some people are embarrased if they don't want to go ahead but it is just good manners to let you know.
