Good morning everyone. Thank you for all good wishes
Will have long day today. Lot of things going on I havent told you about. But yesterday thing got bit out of hand.
As you know we are moved to UK in feb this year. And we live in share house. I would not say it is perfect but its not bad at all. Quiet, good area and nice neighbors. But landlords ( husband and wife )god help the owner of this house. Honest.
We pay 450£ for one room. Bill inc. and we are happy to pay it as the room is big and we have made it home for us. But lets be honest 450£ is not bread-money either.
So what happened is that 5 !! months ago in april out fire alarm started to scream with no reason. We manage to reset and kill the noise but main unit showed problems. So we called landlord and let them know what happened. They did no return to our call or voicemail. Two weeks later fire alarm started to work again. We send an e-mail again. No respond. It happened few times again. Every time we sent an email and they did not replay or do anything about it. In august the smoke detector started beeping as the battery is going empty. I send them an email again. Saying the beeping drives us crazy. Nothing. Then landlord come to house and we told her about it , she said " yes will deal with it " nothing.
Last week after another fire alarm and reset the main unit the main unit started beeping too. So now we had two constantly beeping things in house. Hubby sent a mail but I called until they take the call and was very mad and angry. I manage to get the hubby on phone. He said he did not know about the problem ??? That hes wife is dealing it it ??? But I was very upset and he promise to send someone to come and look. 7 hours later nothing. I called again and manage to get wife on phone. She said that someone is coming but we should be able to reset it ourselves. Lucky someone did come and after 5-6 try's manage to reset unit. Until 3 days later ( last Friday ) when it went off 1 am. I think it woke up all the neighbors too. We could not made it quiet. The main unit is in error. After 20 min we manage to turn of alarm but not beeping. We slept with beeping .... Next day landlords again started to tell us they did not know and the electric will come on monday ?? We were not agree to be with beeping all weekend and made them to send someone same day. They did and guy who show up did turn off beeping but said there is still something wrong. Monday alarm activated again. Landlords said yes yes but did nothing. Tuesday - sent us mail they will come Wednesday as electric cant come tuesday ( 2 days living with beeping ) and yesterday when my hubby called em where are you , landlord the man said he cant make it. We will have to wait that hes doing hes best. There were my hubby lost it and told him that 5 months ignoring problem is not doing all you can. And landlord told that if we dont like it he is giving us 30 day notice and move out. Hubby told him that first of all we want notice on paper and second what would the landlords associate thing if we will tell them how we were kicked out because for 5 months there was faulty fire-alarm in house and they did nothing. At that point landlord stop call and turn phone out. Called back 30 min later saying phone died and saying hes sorry that we should work everything out and hes trying bla bla bla.
I got home and hubby was so stresses. He cant find job and now if we need to love too, it will be hard to manage. I did try to cheer him up and started searching for rooms but there is not many options. I know we will be fine but Im worried too.
Now my hubby called and said that the landlord called him and asking for 50£ to borrow so he could pay to guy who will come and see what is wrong with main unit ?? Like really ? Yesterday you kicking us out and today you want us to give you money ?? Do hope they will fix this unit once and for all and I have time to find new home. I dont want to stay there anymore. Not after this. But we can not afford anything our own atm. And its hard to find big room with all bills included.
So thats whats going on in our house
sorry for long story but worry is in my heart and just have to tell someone.
About better news. Interview went well I think but pay was low. There is plus sides too - often sundays will be free as restaurant is closed on sundays and there is only 2 chefs working.
Kitchen looked better then the one I am now. And I could learn pasty section. That would really suit me.
Saturday I have another working interview. They should offer more money and if they do I will take it. After all thats going around here I need more to survive.
Monday tho I think I will go and see how the Radisson works. Just out of interest
