Where we crash and burn and flats are trashed
Thank god, for the F1 otherwise last weekend would have been absolutely dreadful.
Oh wait no, it was. Last week, my tenant left my flat (apartment) and so we went to view the property to make sure that everything was okay before we released the deposit. I wish we hadn’t bothered. The flat was a mess, furniture broken, stains all over the cupboards and cooker, toilet was… best not to even go there, shower fittings broken, photo frames broken … and the list goes on. Moreover, all this from tenants who aren’t students/young/party rockers etc, no they were quite well off in very good jobs. It’s just disgusting. I am currently renting a house close to work and I freak out every time I see a small wear on the carpet. I can’t believe how disrespectful people can be. At the end of that you are living in someone else’s house, I am not saying you need to walk on tiptoes but come on. Then again, I was telling people at work and someone said one of her friends had holes left in the walls courtesy of tenants so maybe mine weren’t that bad but. It’s just a hassle, I have to replace the furniture, call someone to remove the broken furniture and hire someone to come and clean the place, because I am sure not going to clean that mess. :grumpy:
So in other news England are out of the world cup after a really embarrassing game against Germany and the papers are full of stories about football hooligans like burning a Germany flag (WTF?) and even worse attacking this poor German person (absolutely disgusting) As I said, embarrassing in every sense.
2 weeks ago, I was away in Reading on a course for work related purposes. It was very good, and very useful so I am happy I went although some of my predictions about what would happen were correct. I will leave that there, as since its work I don’t want to talk about in my blog and mainly because once I start to moan about work, I can’t stop.
Which is probably a good place to leave this blog as I now need to get ready for work 
Goodness, I didn’t know that stuff like that happens because of soccer/football (whatever you want to call it) over there! We in Canada are so chill; except for sports like Hockey where we’re nuts, and we’d probably do that too. I guess it IS embarrassing that England is out, considering they’re the country whom had invented the game, but i guess it’s also expected. All the players that they recruited or either playing for other countries or stuck with different tactics of coach and players. Either way, it’s a good change – spain and the Dutch! This was so unexpected!
Really, that tenant needs to get a LIFE. I don’t know how people don’t care about leaving the place in order as it was before they came in… Same thing happened to me; you won’t believe what a jungle they made out of our garden when we came back after 5 years. I heard from our neighbors that they could experience real-life safari with all those grass and weeds growing up to your knee… lol
Those tenants didn’t bother to clean, and our house must have seemed abandoned, coz kids started to call it a “ghost house” before we came back… Urgh. :grumpy:
Oh wow.
That’s horrible. I’m pretty anal about my room as the way it is and I could never leave someone else’s place looking like that.
It’s just unbelievably disrespectful and rude.
England sucks.
I’m surprised by how many people seem to think each World Cup will be ‘our’ year to win the Cup. Well that and they like to mention 1966 so often I feel like I was there when we bloody won it >_>
England were absolutely abysmal against Germany. It was really embarrassing to watch (Ignore the fact that I was rooting for Germany XD).
Sucks about the tenant thing. It is pretty disrespectful. They shouldn’t just leave it in that condition and move.
Oh well it was embarrassing watching Australia (this is where I’m from) versing Germany as well. We lost 4-0 :S.
Sorry to hear about the tenant issue, I’m astounded myself at the condition i’ve seen people leave things and places in. How do you even BREAK furniture anyway haha. Sometimes you jsut have to believe certain things are deliberate
