I'm looking forward to life getting back to normal. Kylie and I are starting to settle into the new flat after THE MOST STRESSFUL MOVE EVER and get back to smiling, playing games and having fun. Despite a lack of cash from the hectic Christmas period, we'll still be able to enjoy ourselves.
It would be great if other people (and by that I mean my idiot former land lord) didn't invade our mental space. Our former land lord is a total tool. We had to move over Christmas because he lost the flat due to not paying the mortgage. We were advised to leave as quick as we could by our letting agency. Now, three days after we left the flat, he wants to keep the place and he wants us to give it another clean despite the fact that we left it ship shape. Basically, he wants us to do him yet another favour because we have done so many for him in the past. Even the agency think he's being a prick. I just laughed at him. He's clearly not in the best way because of his hap hazard approach to finances and terrible people skills.
This is a man who once changed his account details and forgot to tell us after our rent went out and whose lacklustre land lord duties caused me to fix all the problems myself.
The guy keeps having this sudden changes of heart and expects everyone to do his bidding because, well, he's pretty bloody incapable of getting things done himself. It annoys me that I did this guy so many favours, saved him money on repairs and he still wants more. I was never obliged to help him out but I did so to be a nice, trouble-free tenant.

If this guy takes a portion of our deposit it will be unfair as a few days ago it was all good because didn't give a shit about the property. Now we may have to cough op for 'a cleaner' because he's had a change of heart and now wants to be petty.
This is the most I've had to deal with the guy so at least, for the most part, our time at Apartment 40 was an enjoyable one. He's managed to turn a simple flat move into something resembling a break up. Next he'll want to split the DVD's and CD's.
