My son and daughter told me that Marilyn. but I live in the same block as the estate manger she lives in the flat opposite mine. My daughter said wait till she goes to poland and get it done then she goes for two weeks.
I think I am too honest so dont get anywhere for being that way.

How is Pete getting on after his gall bladder removal is he completely better now ?

good evening.

Very slow day at work. I was watching the clock most of the day.

Went docs tonight, went in, it was dry, come out, and it was pouring with rain. lol

My flowers are still beautiful, I reckon I got a bargain. :-D

Looking forward to my cake Pauline, I hope you had a lovely day. I hope you dont have as much trouble spending your birthday money as I have had. I've still got some left, 7 months on.

Hope everyone is well. Mo rub vick on your feet and put on a pair of thick socks. ;-)

See ya all later.

Rita.

Go put in a new cooker .......they would never be able to evict you ! you own the property and all its contents.....

As long as you can prove to your Leaseholder on sale of your property when the time comes that it was installed by a professional installer I cant see the problem.

I know that's what I would do.....in other words are they suppose to check ALL your electrical goods to see if its in working order ....I think Not !!

No the people know they have been put there for a reason I think they see me coming.

I am still fighting the leasholders of this property. I asked for permission to change my gas cooker over to electric we have both in our kitchens. I was told yes but I have to pay £60 to do this. so I complained to HO and they sent the letter to the area manager who hung onto it for a few weeks. before telling me that up to date requirments due to safety regulations they have to check my contractor had the required qulifications. this is for me and my neighbours safety ( I told them I didnt think John Lewis would send an unqulaifed contractor to fit it.) the connections are all there they need to plug the gas cap and shut it down and the electric is already there only need to be wired in.I would only use a contractor that was within the regulations.

Then they put secondly when a property is sold there is a requiment to produce evidence where an alteration has been made and approved by the landlord (Leaseholder )and a certificate produced solicitors now request copies of these as part of the property purchase, in order to prepare for the future.and request to have the documents completed at the time of alteration.So I asked are you telling me that ? if I sell this property I have to pay £60 to have my cooker taken out and supply a certificate, to prove it, ? and if someone buys the property they will have to supply a certificate to have a cooker put in ?
The world has gone over the top. needless to say I am going to keep my cooker. they can go and run for my money..
They screw you for everything they can. and this a registered charity.
The internal furniture and the flat is my own it is the ground that is leased..
I have just repled again and told them a few home truths.

I've still got my wings Marilyn, so Stephen couldn't possibly have led me astray. :-) Although I must admit........... he did try - but don't tell anyone. ;-)

I've put the cake in the cyber hatch, it's on its way.

How did your cousin smell gorgeous, what did he smell of? Are you sure he was talking about the shape of your mouth? LOL. :-D :-D :-D

I've just had a phone call to say my niece and her daughters are on their way over to see me............. better defrost some cakes quick.

Never thick Stephen . everyone seem to be having problems with their hot matches. the site is slow as well. why I wonder has all these problem started to come to the surface.?

This will make you giggle we have a laundryroom on this estate we have a book you log your name in with the time you want to do your washing.it works well normally.
a couple of months ago I noticed the pens had run out of ink , so I brought a box of 6 and placed them in the laundryroom for people to use they only cost me £1.50. a month later they had vanished no pens only one pencil.

two weeks ago I brought a tub of toothbrushes held about 10 not good one but useable. they cost me £1.25 I put them in the laundryroom in the tub for people to use to clean the filter out of the comercial dryer when they had used it. . much easier . today I went in there to do my washing and found they too have vanished. someone is taking these things,. I cannot think who would do this. ?
so I am not buying anything else I shall take my own in and bring them back. no one on this estate is that short of money.

You've been having a bit of trouble getting transport lately haven't you Rita? I wonder if the doctor's surgery can sort something out for you. It's worth a try.

Rita Report 20 Jun 2011 17:06

I have not had my hot matches come through for a few months. the last ones I had were nothing to do with my family. so I am not going to bother opening them again.

I am once again having a problem getting a curtisy car to take me to the hospital. what a bug bare it has become. I think I will have to contact my doctors and tell them. I go next week for my three monthly c T scan.

*Wipes face* thank you Stephen.

*Wipes face again* thank you Fluffy Paws.

That's the bike sorted, but could have done with a bit of help with the mower, had to go out and buy a new one today................ not with my birthday money though.

My Hot Matches are the same, I can see names there from about 5 years ago.

Same here Stephen. You cannot look at them or delete them.

And I've received 15 pages worth too - a summary of all my previous matches.
