  • don't know if anyone is that bothered but last monday i gave him his final warning that the next time he's late with payment or if its not a full payment then he has a weeks notice to vacate.

    Most of you will prob think i'm being soft and i prob am and i should have got rid over 2 months ago and tbh its getting to me that he's at my home but i kinda feel that i can't throw him out without this last chance.

    One of his colleagues is !!!!ed of at him coz he owes them money which he kinda just takes as water of a ducks back.

    It just astounds me how little he cares about money oweing etc

    anyway rent day is monday so we shall see

    You can do without that. You were too soft with him.
    After the uprising of the 17th June The Secretary of the Writers Union
    Had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee Stating that the people
    Had forfeited the confidence of the government And could win it back only
    By redoubled efforts. Would it not be easier In that case for the government
    To dissolve the people
    And elect another?

    the time has come and i asked him to leave today after he didn't pay me on time again, i have now asked him to leave which led to an arguement in where he was trying to make out i was being unfair but i held my ground and now he is to go by end of next monday.

    I have done the following

    1) blocked his sky box from purchasing things
    2) taken the phone of the hook to stop 0900 calls being left

    any other ideas? i'm a bit anxious but i suffer anxiety anyway so its not surprising
