    Once an agency knows that you can be bothered to pay a solicitor to review your contract and redraft clauses, they realise that you will be trouble if they don't pay you......
    Possibly, but in my case I would give them a body swerve.

        A fosse is a ditch really, like Fosse Way.

        I would fosse them if I were you.

          La fosse is French for pit.

          Le fossé is French for ditch.

          La fosse septique is French for septic tank.

              I like the cut of La Fosse's jib.

              The great news is that they describe how they are different: How we are Different | La Fosse Associates

              Disappointingly, their website doe not obviously give their company number, VAT number and other pieces of information required by the Companies Act.
