" ..... can I freeze their assets till it goes to court?" I doubt it - but ask your lawyer - thats what he's there for
Didn't think the offer would last long - glad I got it though [that sounds selfish - probably is!] --------------- " ......... hope the queuing system works efficiently - and that roads from the ports don't get clogged with the drive-off traffic." There will definitely be a case for turning left at the docks exit onto the road up the [steepish] hill and back to London on the old A2, thus avoiding the crush through Dover itself
