A friend's husband abandoned her about 3 years ago and disappeared to Scotland (we think). According to her solicitor my friend must "find" her husband and have him sign over the house as she is thinking of selling up starting afresh else where with her 5 year old son. Is it me or does this sound crazy, she hasn't seen or heard from him in 3 years, doesn't know where exactly he is whether he is still alive or not but she can't proceed without his permission!?!
