the letter  from the plaintiffs solicitors in respect of question of interest one causes, the letter of the twenty ninth of january of nineteen ninety two, asking mr  to confirm, that in addition to the settlement figure of forty two thousand pounds in respect of costs he'd be paying interest until the date of payment, and er, there was never a mind that  erm which find a reply to in, in thirtieth of march nineteen ninety two by mr , there's no unqualified agreement in figure of forty two thousand pounds, i do not wish to appear obstructive but your clients must recognise that there are effectively two issues to be resolved, namely the payment of their costs and the division of the parts of other property, surely in all parties interest that none of these are resolved, so it is surely in all party interest that those, those are resolved contemporary  and then the letter goes on to dealing with questions of valuation, the bottom paragraph on page thirty two in the bundle says  in answer to your letter therefore is that there is no agreement to pay interest, if there is then my client must be credited with interest on his costs , and then it says  surgery and finally  if ove if overall agreement cannot be reached then my client reserves his rights on the issue of costs and i feel that this could lead to an acrimonious and protracted taxation, at the end of the day i suspect it would only be enforced the order for costs about taking a charge in my clients interest in the surgery premises , does that improve your clients position at all, as i say that was the position of the  thirtieth of march nineteen ninety two and during the remainder of nineteen ninety two there were then further  negotiations, some of them appeared to have been carried out er personally between er doctor  and er doctor  which seems to of been the partner, dealing with the plaintiffs position and er he says about his non negotiable offer at page forty one in the bundle apparently attached to a letter of the twenty first of december nineteen ninety two and er that had a time limit on, the twenty second of march, there was a reminder on the twenty second of february  and erm the plaintiffs solicitors  wrote on the fourteenth of april nineteen ninety three raising the question of costs erm say that erm   we have now received your clients instructions, that they would be prepared to accept the sum of forty two thousand in respect of their standard basis costs which is inclusive of v a t and disbursements, you remember that our initial schedule of costs which i set part of my letter of the eighth of october total fifty thousand, nine hundred and ninety eight pounds, twenty six pence, in addition to this our client would require interest from the  which is as of todays date at seven hundred and sixty days at seventeen pounds, twenty six a day totalling thirteen thousand, one hundred and seventeen pounds, sixty, in the circumstances i look forward to receiving your clients cheque for the sum of fifty five thousand, one hundred and seventeen pounds and sixty pence within the next seven days  and then it says  i believe you were certainly agreeing have been very patient concerning your clients costs, but now we wish these to be paid  and that was responded to er mr  on the twenty second of april  er  but why he quite has not been directly involved in the conversation for some time and there was not reasonable expected response for seven days from him, er and then he goes on to say  that although he appreciates his firm is still on the record, i shall seek instructions from my client, but it maybe he would wish to give notice of acting in person  and indeed that is in fact what happened, what happened in this case.
