philpy Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 East lothian council are arseholes. My fiancee's mum passed away last sunday, and the family wanted to give it a couple of weeks before they emptied her flat, but they were told they would have to pay 2 weeks full rent, starting from the sunday she passed away. Most other regions give you 2 weeks grace, but not these money-grabbing fuckwits 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuxake. I get the feeling that they just want to give flats to junkies and alkies these days. In fact, i might stick a needle in my arm just so i can get a council flat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mid-table Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I just went onto moneysupermarket.com, and checked out mortgages. If I was to get a £200,000 mortgage (enough for a 1 bed flat / house) with a £10k deposit, I would have £6 left each month after paying my mortgage. Not quite enough to pay council tax, utilities, eat, do anything except work and sleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I see from your profile that you're from West London, is that where you're looking to buy? Bloody hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mid-table Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I see from your profile that you're from West London, is that where you're looking to buy? Bloody hell. Yes, Northwood area. You could get something for about £120,000 in an area like Hayes, but that is an absolute sh!thole and the increase in life insurance premiums would probably offset the reduced mortgage. I'm fairly mobile and work from home a lot, so I might save up for a few years then move back up to Scotland on the same salary and buy a house. I priced that too and not surprisingly it was much more affordable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happened with one of my Mental Health Patients. Turns out it was a combination of maintenance work that needed to be carried out, and the fact that the previous tenant hadn't returned their set of keys. That was West Lothian Council. Hope you get in there soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xbl Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I hate being an old person. A year ago, if the subject of the Vengaboys in Stirling had come up, it would have been a drop everything and go. Now: "oh, Ive got work the next day", "got my driving test", "working the night shift", "who are the Vengaboys? Them? Oh god no.". I hate being 22. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbl Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 And another one. In anticipation of tomorrow, I decided that I should do something about a couple wee tufts of nasal hair I have. Turns out that some big and old kitchen scissors from out of my car toolbox are not the answer. I think Ive cut the inside of my nose a bit. It hurts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
