I believe that there was a way to get it done - but we just took it as a

If you want to stay in the same region, let me know. Now that my
cousin's settled in Merignac I try to get there as often as I can. Also
my uncle is counting on me in the spring on my grand dad's plot.

I can do just ask. My cousin was in a very similar situation but she
fought hard. The house she wanted was indeed on 2 sibling's inheritance
and the dispute went on and on. But she was patient and got it in the

did well. She's now an expert really. So lets use her!
