Anyone else in rented? & is your landlord a dick?
Mine is driving ME crazy! Unfortunately he lives next door- but he does 4 months in the UK & 8 abroad. Normally we don't see him when he's back- but while we've been decorating we've come across issues with the house & being the cheapskate he is- he's fixing the problems himself! The French doors in the kitchen broke, so he's refitted them himself- but done it wrong... Apparently the company that sent the door sent him a wonky door (no, the hole in the wall is wonky) he now can't get hold of them as they are shut for xmas period, so he can't fix it until next week. The door is in but the draught is unreal (especially in this weather) great....
He's laid the carpets in the house with no underlay.... So we've told him he needs to get new carpets (which he's agreed too) but rather than one carpet throughout he's suggested that we have different carpets in each room- basically buy offcuts- And he will lay them himself! Again, no underlay, u don't need them with a concrete floor apparently!
There's other bits he needs to do but everything just takes him so long. I keep saying to him you need to get on with it- I've got weeks until this baby is due it needs to be done. He expects us to help him.... Yeh good one 31 weeks pregnant & a man with a completely fudged back!
Im seriously at the end of my tether! I just want to cry right now
