I'm not sure you appreciate how big a problem you have, when people tell you to contact a homelessness charity there's a reason. Seriously, call them before you end up ringing them from a payphone.patrick.madden wrote: »It is sometimes that random person who can give you advice as may have been there once.0 -

If the judge makes a possession order then he must allow you 14 days before it's executed, this can be extended to 42 days in exceptional circumstances.
Your damp issue may well be down to your lifestyle, i.e. drying clothes indoors. lack of ventilation etc.0 -
Thank you all and i am seeking advice also.
Regarding damp we have imformed LL many times and also letting agents and there aware of the problem and choose to ignore it as being a old house.If the walls were treated with damp proofing then it would not be as bad.So i am not going down without a fight and am filling for disrepair due to damp and other no repairs and my son and partner having asthma.We dont what to leave as been here two years now.Thanks ALL0 -
