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 :sad:

Life’s a bitch and I am a moron

I am my own worst enemy. No really I am. Today has probably been one of the crappiest days I’ve ever had. And I make it worst by being an idiot, no really I need the word moron taped to my head.
I’ve been feeling tired and sluggish due to this diet that I’m on, which I’ve recently found out after talking to my friend who’s a Nutritionist (well done for passing your MSc hun!!) is not a healthy diet. She said that I am building ketone’s in my body and starving myself, so I am going to do the diet for this one week then join slimming world. It also didn’t help that I nearly fainted and was sick today but oh well. Anyway, because of this I haven’t really been paying attention to what I am doing at all. So I’ve had a headache all day, I’ve been drinking nearly 4 pints of whatever and stilling feeling this bad and life is shit.

So why the bad day? It first started with this dating website I joined be2.co.uk (DO NOT JOIN IT or any other sites associated with it!) I realised it was shit and not worth the money so I wanted to cancel. I contacted them, no answer. I tried to cancel online and I received a cancellation code with the words click here to log in and cancel – the link didn’t work. Okay, so I logged in and searched where to place the cancellation code – couldn’t find it. Write them another email, nothing. Today still no answer, so I sent them a strongly worded letter and sent it to each email address they had – no answer. I thought well this code (48 hour expiry) is nearly finished so I will request another one. To get it you have to go to help -> FAQ -> Payment -> then there is some advice telling you how to cancel. Guess what I find there? The box to enter the code! Come on that is so crap, who places the cancellation box in the FAQ section?? It should be on your profile section. If I hadn’t have gone into it before the code expired I would never have know. Sorry but can we say suspicious here. One the link in the email didn’t work, there was no mention of where to enter the code and it’s located in the FAQ section. Surely it should be under profile and settings? I’ve cancelled it but I will be entering this site into all the fraud website advisor. And I’ve noticed a lot of people have now done so, I did a search before I joined but found nothing but now I can find loads saying how they’ve been cheated.

Anyway, why am I a moron? During the time of this, I received an email from Evans where I have returned some items. Anyway it said refund £40. Now don’t ask me why but I thought I paid £75 so I was like WTH! And it didn’t enter my mind to check how much, no that would be the sensible thing to do. No, I go and ring them saying, ‘I WANT MY FULL MONEY BACK!!’ and then when she asks for the order code, I am giving it and then I see how much I paid … you guessed it £40. OMG can you please say HUMA YOU ARE A MORON!! ARGGH!! I am such an idiot. Lol, I am finding it funny now but at the time I was so mortified. A lesson is learnt here, check before you go steaming off. Of course I will never learn from this and do it again but oh well. Lol, I am laughing at myself now. :lol:

But please, bring on tomorrow already. Please. :angel:
