Thank you both Sir Humphrey and Flame Tree. We have already tried the polite letter approach, I admit not as comprehensively as you suggest Sir H, and got a diatribe back about freedom of speech meaning people can speak to whomsoever they like, and that anyone can call for quotes as calling for a quote does not equate to issuing a work order and so on and so forth. We did write (or rather, had the SM write) to all the usual suppliers of services to the building so that they would know who the SC contact person was – we didn’t however anticipate that she would approach structural engineers and builders and so on over a matter that is clearly a major OC issue, and so our letters didn’t go nearly widely enough!
FT you hit the nail on the head “if it’s getting to you” ! It is nice to get a little solidarity on this forum – of course it would be better if no-one could say that they had had the same experience, but it does somehow help one gird one’s loins to get back to the business at hand and try and ignore the troublemakers, knowing that others have similar experiences too and that one is not alone.
And so we press on….
