What's stopping her getting another set of keys cut???
Talk to the landlord first, but get the damned locks changed.
He might even give you your deposit back, you give her half, then take out another lease of your own

All I'm going to do is wait until the landlord is back, as soon as he is I will get all of this sorted.

I said because she is sleeping with some other guy and I am obviously not happy she is willing to do that whilst she has led me on and all her shit is in the house. Of course the mother backed up for her and said she cleaned the house last week, I just laughed and said yeah that's great.
Bad thing is she came today for what I was hoping to be the final time I see her for a while to sort out the bills. As soon as they were done, I gave her the opportunity to clear herself of guilt and admit she had lied about loads of issues over the last few weeks. She didn't so I gave some proof and she still didn't so that's up to her and achieved nothing apart from it showed I cannot trust her for shit, who knows she might try and steal whilst she still has access.
I asked for the keys and she refused until she gets her half of the deposit back, which I suppose is fair but I said as soon as I can give you the money I will and we won't have to see each other in a few weeks but she didn't like that at all. So all in all, I'm going to sadly have to see her again at some point in the next month but I'm hoping she is willing to post her keys through the door and be done with it. I thought she wouldn't be so ****ing awkward, but nothing surprises me from here on.
So when are you two getting married then?

Re: How to be royally f*cked over in just 28 days!
Of course you need permission to change the locks
BUT
if its a Yale type lock, you can easily change the barrel of the lock ( just keep the old one safe, as you could change it back when you move out )
less than a 10'er and 15 mins work

Take it down the tip and put up a nice new wooden one, covered with uPVC.

Maybe it's the anonymity of it all?
Sometimes it's easier to ask for help anonymously as opposed to the real world.
Maybe one day you'll be in a shitty situation and won't know who to turn to - that's when the advice of clever feckers like us will come to the fore.
On a personal level, if it wasn't for people like Mrs R I'd never have become the technological genius (and ladies man) that I am today.

On a serious note, i guess its leaking at one of the roof joints ( or the sides )
slack of the fixings a little, run a bead ( a line ) of sikaflex on each of the joints and then tighten the fixing up

shouldnt really be a gap, if the gap is too big for sealant, then you might need to go and buy something to act as a cover strip for it, B&Q do 15 - 20 mm strips of aluminium ( which you could stick on with silicone or use some self tappers to screw it on )
as you got your money back, its a win win, you get to keep your money and spend fooking hours arsing about with it and trying to get it right :thumbup:

I'm an obstinate bloke who loves somethin' fer nothing, so that's what I'll do. I think I'll use a few more self tapping screws to fix everything more firmly and squirt some sealant around. Sunday looks dry....

Oh dear. Groupon.
Once and once only I bought something from the total shitfest that is groupon.
Rattan garden furniture for 200 quid. Seemed like a bargain as I'd seen them for twice that everywhere else.
Spent all day arsing about trying to put some badly constructed shit together. Half the holes were in the wrong places, god knows how many screws and rivets were missing, no instructions etc. - eventually I managed to use my moderate diy skills to get a table, 4 chairs and a bench assembled as best I could. Finished the final chair, stood it up and discovered that one leg was about three inches shorter than the rest.
Smashed it to shit, rung the number, had the mother of all rants, they refunded my money and told me I could keep the shitty rattan as a gesture of goodwill. Burnt it on a fire out my back garden - one of the most satisfying experiences of my life.
Moral of the story - don't buy anything from groupon. It's just shit they can't sell anywhere else. Because it's shit.
Take a sledgehammer to the shitty shed. You'll feel so much better for doing it.

I'm glad you said that Mrs R. Because I have this question that's always been bugging me.
Pretend 1% of the population has a disease. You have a test that determines if you have that disease, but it’s only 80% accurate and 20% of the time you get a false positive. Your test comes back positive. How likely is it you have the disease?
