    So glad to hear that you've spoken with your landlord and come to an agreeable solution. :j

    thanks Lilt:heart2:.. no worries, MB, I understand how you feel.. i am more disappointed than anyone.. it wasn't a missed payment scenario/rent or anything just something that slipped the net because it came up in november right before LL moved in and I was flying transatlantic-ally at the time, my landlord did lots of renovations to the block and the tenants all agreed to pay a contribution to some of the stuff which also included some specifics i needed done to make the place child friendly, get rid of some damp, privacy film, new curttains and blinds, what have you... he invoiced me for it right when i was in a sea of life altering events and was very understanding when i said 'can you give me a few months on this, say, april?'
    next thing i know it was april and i hadn't thought a thing more about it. unforgivable i know - especially as in feb with my LBM i spent ages working everything out what i owe and where and i have no idea why i didn't remember it, i suppose it was just one of those irregular things that slipped the net. x

    ps : i've always alwaaaaaays been on time with rent, plus any previous extra payments, never quibbled rises, he knows i look after the place very well so i don't think i'd be on his bad tenant list for a while i hope. its OK hopefully as long as i'm good to my word on april 28, which i will be, everything is under control on the "blip".. blips though eh? ain't life full of 'em.

    Levi I hear this all the time and I feel its quite apt for now :-)

    Lol Levi

    I will never master that in a million years.

    MessyBetty we know our Levi would never miss a payment now don't we. It wasn't rent, that much I knew so I PM'd to find out. Levi is not by anyones standards the worst tenant in this place, and much as I see where you are coming from, I went and got the facts behind the scenes before I jumped on the poor fella.

    Lilty trust me I didn't jump on anyone 😀

    Lots of love to you, and to you too MessyBetty because I know your intentions were good. xxx
    Thank you xx

    Hooray!!!

    Fantastic news. I knew it would just take a phone call and you had blown it up in your own head beyond what was actually going to happen :) I am very very proud of you for picking up the phone hun. I know that for you that sort of thing takes a lot of guts so well done and a big pat on the back. See thats two phonecalls that have made your life much simpler now. These phone things are alright aren't they ;)

    Blips.. they are everywhere my dear. We all have em. I appear to have 20 a day at the moment. Most of which relate to a drama llama threenager. :rotfl:

    Everything will be ok. Remember to tell us what the dramas going on behind the scenes in Levi-ville are because it is better out than in, and with more information, we can try our best to help you no matter what :)

    MessyBetty I didn't mean you jumped on him, :o :grouphug: just that the circumstances (as you see above) were quite different to what it sounded like when landlords and money were mentioned :) we are all doing our best to push him through. I hope I didn't offend you either!

    ^ There speaks a debt-busting warrior indeed in Lucky. What is one more month... it is a blink in a lifetime. Inspirational lady who has been battling a heck of a lot and debt on top :heart2:
