    Mrs Generali is in there right now. I'm very nervous for her. We should be fine as LL hasn't a leg to stand on as she never took an inventory.

    Then the next decision will be whether to complain to the police about harassment.

    The very same. Actually we ended up in St Albans.

    The harassment was pretty minor (she wanted us to sign away some of our rights as tenants) but it was pretty distressing for Mrs Generali at 6 months pregnant. We moved out almost 2 years ago so it's taken a while!
