Janet.smith653, may I suggest that you need to focus on your problem and stop making enemies of everyone.

If there's something to salvage, it might be less painful to do that. Maybe you are repeating a pattern of running away instead of solving the problem directly. Think back to why you went off with your grandson instead of sorting out your daughter to look after him -- maybe with your support.
Similarly, think now how you could salvage what you have in the property, rather than flee and have a fight.

You alluded to nearby neighbours. Do they have mains electricity and water?

Right across the road? In that case you would get planning permission no problem, maybe with minor adjustments to bring the house up to minimum standards and then get connected up. You can then sell or rent it out! :D

Without hearing both sides, I would suggest you do not prejudice your case by making remarks which can be viewed as libellous since you are probably not too far from having your case heard. It does sound like the courts would compensate you for the unfinished work and then hopefully you can contact a regular builder to set things right. If it's just connections to the mains and you have close neighbours, I don't think you should worry.

Take care of your grandson and daughter (is she still in the picture?), as you can never have this time back again; and bricks and mortar will be here longer than you ever will be.

It's darkest before the dawn.

(I hope no one put you up to making an Internet fuss -- it's the worst thing you can do under such circumstances.)

Hi Janet, I have sent you an email. Please know that i sympathise fully with the hurt, disappointment, rage, sense of injustice that you are feeling. To have made a decision to change your life and go down a path full of hope, only to have it turned upside down by the actions of others is totally devastating! I am being continuously told to get on with my life and let things take their course and that, one day, it will all be sorted. What a wonderful scenario. The reality is that you go to bed with this problem, you wake with this problem, and your day is filled with this problem. I have no idea IF it will be sorted, WHEN it will be sorted and WHAT of my future? My health has suffered and my enthusiasm for anything has diminished. Unless you are in this situation, you can only begin to imagine how it feels. I would love to enjoy each day of my life in a normal way, but my right to do so has been snatched from me. I have been brought to my knees financially and have no security. All i can say to you Janet is keep going, dont give up, wait and try to cope as best you can. I would like to think that one day we will both overcome our problems and indeed begin to enjoy life once more.

Dunno. :?

If it was me, my "nightmare" would have been the dozen or so years my grandson lived with a drug addict mother -- not some couple of months of not being hooked up to the Mains! :roll: Goodness, some, whole, villages still don't have mains water and electricity.

People, help these folks put this in perspective and stop winding them up!
