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!
