Well, we didn't get the house, so we're stuck in this hellhole for a bit longer.

So are you going to unpack or hold out for another?

So far he's had....oh hang on....no action at all taken against him. We're not on the list for moving over him anyhoo, it's the size of the house that's the problem. Tigs you're more than welcome, if you can hack death threats off a heroin addict. Oh and the "We're just here to help.....but ....erm...no we can't help, it's not our job," housing officer. LOL. You've got to laugh or you'd cry.

I'd like to point out our area is a lovely area, and not as bad as it sounds. One corner of an estate doesn't make the place a "hell hole", neither does missing one bedroom

Well 225 point for medical needs for an extra bedroom would suggest that thankfully the housing association feel differently. Not quite sure why you chose online to spurt this out when I only live over the fence, but hey ho.

Hey, no need for it missus, I'm only pointing out what a nice area it is apart from resident ravey davey.
I dont know about medical need, as that's none of my beeswax. Technically I'm more overcrowded though - fancy a kid or two?

LOL - I don't need any more, ever, ever, ever, thanks Hard enough work with the ones I have *lol*. Edited to add: Just wanted to make it clear that we have a medical need for an extra room and therefore don't need extra children, fabulous as that thought is. We didn't apply for rehousing because of the area either, or we wouldn't be looking for another house here. We are attempting to get a 4 bedroomed house so that Lisa's nephews, my sons, can have their legitimate medical needs filled. The fact that we have awful neighbours is secondary to that.

Interestingly and excitingly enough, we may be back in the running for the new house. We missed out on it last week as the current tenant changed her mind about moving. This morning she phoned the housing association and said she wanted to move out again. Can't get our hopes up because she's fannying about and might change her mind again (of course if she does I might thump her). Keep your fingers crossed ;D

If you can afford paint, then bring it on Tigs *lmao*. Otherwise can we have a "Kathy's spent all her savings on removals so the house is carpetless and magnolia" party? ;D

Thanks Sam! Everything's a mad dash now for this "home visit" on Friday from the housing officer. Getting all the paintwork touched up and the house clean, and the rats hidden and bla bla bla. Nightmare. I'm covered in paint and in need of a week's sleep!
Hope you're all well - will drop you an email when it's less hectic xxx

LOL thanks Sam. Well the visit is now tomorrow, in my college lunchbreak. Oh joy! I will be back online more regularly soon if I don't get the new house - if I do I might be AWOL for a while.
