Previous landlord wants to reclaim costs from years ago

The poor mare sounds desperate for either money or company.

You must have two very old pillows you could send, and maybe an old drainer? :rotfl:


Humm, perhaps not, she'd want to charge for the use you've had . . . :eek:

You could ask for the original purchase receipts before you consider her answer. £50? Were they from Harrods or something?

I bought two pillows for £80. And than was a reduced price. So they could cost that much! (Yes the pillows are worth it, I am picky!)


Though not the sort of things you would put in a retal. In fact pillows provided in a retal. Yuck! Does that like actually happen?

No landlord in the country spends £50 on two pillows and a drainer.

I worked in B&Q for a long time. It seemed there was some kind of code among landlords.

They would normally ask about a problem they need to solve. I would answer the problem telling them what tools and products they needed. To which they would always reply.... 'o i dont live in it, its for a rental'. At that point i was expected to disregard any idea of doing a proper job and would be limited to solving something like rising damp with a tub of magnolia and a tube of silicon sealant.
