I got home last night to find a small leak at the top of the stairs, I phoned the landlord and he said that he was sending out a plumber, he did and within an hour the ceiling had fallen through. We had to evacuate the property as there was rat poison falling out the roof from the attic (when we moved in there was rats and we hadn't been told) there are rats the size of cats now running about my house, there is insulation all down my stairs, and water pouring everywhere! I had to give my Daughter back to her dad as I couldn't obviously keep her, I phoned the landlord and demanded a hotel, he paid and we checked in whilst arguing all the way. When we got in the room, he told me to "shut my f*cking mouth" so I went ballistic and told him to leave. This is all after my worst day ever at work and me nearly quitting! He walked out about midnight and I fell asleep. He walked back in about 2am and got back into bed and we were ok this morning but I'm furious still. The landlord by all rights (according to the estate agents) does NOT have to relocate or pay for any accommodation, and has advised us not to pay this months rent and just leave. The only place available (with our letting agent) is in an area I used to live with my ex Husband but my Fiance went mad saying "why do I want to move back there so quickly" as I used to live in the same street with my ex about 5 years ago!!!! Grrrrrr I feel that I'm about to have a nervous breakdown and I really cant cope with much more! On top of that, work is still being a pain in the @rse! Advice please!

you bloke seems to be getting worse at how he speaks to you. You sure he's the right man for you?
Ah bless, i really feel for you. What a couple of days you have had or having still. I cant get over that your landlord doesnt have to help pay for an hotel, also you being pregnant too? Have you contacted your local council they might be able to put you in temporary accommodation or help in some way.
Hope you told your as$ of a boss what happened and you still managed to come into work, cos i know i wouldnt of.
Work would have been the least of my priorites.

About your partner speaking to you like that, not that im excusing it but maybe he was in a lot os stress like you and didnt mean it, things can be said in anger.

Hi ya, , he has just rung me but he doesnt seem to realise that I cant have a conversation about my personal life at work! I work in a quiet office and I'm sure that they just love to hear whats going wrong with me now!
I'm so upset, what can I do?
yes but even so you can get angry without swearing and he seems to be doing it alot lately and over not much at all in the past

It was said in anger but he is a very angry person full stop.
Council cant help, already phoned them, I work full time so I pretty much screwed.
Work knows, not an ounce of sympathy, he just laughed and said that I'm cursed!
Oh i didnt know that, no that is out of order.

I am still amazed you went to work, how yuor boss can moan about 2 days off last week is a joke.

Do try the council and see what they say they may be able to help, seeing as you have a daughter and are pregnant.

It does bloody annoy me when us mums who work our ar$ses off and we get no bloody help, if we sat on our buts and got benefits you get every help there is, pi$$es me right off!!! sorry. im not helping much am i
Yer unfortunately council is your only choice at moment, I guess you're one of those people like me where bad luck al comes at once. please try and talk to your bloke about how he speaks to you, it cant be good for you or the baby
I would call them back, tell them you are temporary homeless, ask for the homeless section they should help you.
thats if the illegal immigrants havent got there first

Lol forget!!!!
Thats why I like this site because people just say it as it is.
I just want to go to sleep.
Yeah exactly you aint wrong!
You can kip at mine tonight :-)
or I've got a flat another empty
Council cant help my arse. Get on the phone to shelter. the council always tell you that stuff. You are pregnant and have a child already, this means they have a duty to house you. Be that providing deposits etc but really they can put you in temporary accommodation until you get a house. Because you work you will be expected to pay some of the costs of b&b or other temp accommodation but you are entitled to the help.

Call them, they will also be able to help regarding the state of your current house.
0808 800 4444

When we got evicted the council were reluctant to do anything until I had packed my house up, put all the stuff in storage and was literally on the street, then I got my placement.

Its a stressful time and i can see why I shouted at you at that moment. All though not acceptable. However, if he treats you like this all the time maybe you need to think about what you are doing with him. As a voice of experience, it only got worse for me.
