Hi all....time to take a seat...I've just worked out the arrears of the 4 tenants who've dumped on me in 2013 so I can start raising actions.
Ready for this....
£23,171.73
I've told sheriff officer I'll buy him the biggest steak and best wine in town if he can make a dent in this.:A Let us be grateful to people who make us happy: they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. Marcel Proust :A0 -
:eek: Can't say a lot more other that that, Jenn. I presume you have already evicted or at least tried to evict said tenants?2018 totals:
Savings £11,200
Mortgage Overpayments £5,5000 -
:eek:I know.
Two trashed and ran.
Other two are bras sing it out. They know I'll never get court orders before Christmas. Ones even pretending to be his own brother - think Bart Simpson and his evil twin in the attic.
Karma will prevail...or so I lie to myself :rotfl:
Hope things are well with you. Munchkins birthday must be soon...please dress up as Dora the Explorer - I'd enjoy seeing that

Oh my, sounds like you have the tenants from hell.
Things are too good to be true with me at the moment, I'm enjoying it whilst it lasts.
Son's birthday is on the 18th. However, our little gathering is on the 17th sorry you shall be sorely disappointed; the only time I've been known to do fancy dress happens to be on an occasion that copious amounts of alcohol will be consumed.
