I would like to sincerely thank each and every one of you who took the time to sign my petition. I truly appreciate your support. Unfortunately, despite the assistance from my local MP, the council has decided not to approve my request to exchange properties with my late grandmother.

I believe I have made every effort possible and have done my best. Even with the backing from residents on my nan's street, the council has reached a decision that I find difficult to accept and I must admit I feel quite disappointed. In my view, I find the reasons provided to me may not be entirely convincing, especially since I have observed that the "red tape" seems to be removed when it suits their purposes who am I to challenge them on that because frankly they will do what they want when they want.

Once again, thank you all for your kindness and support.
