i like ginger cats too. pity im allergic to most of them.
the now "old" flatmates were moving out. so they needed someone to occupy their room, or else they would have to pay the full rent. that's why the between themselves, decided to advertise the room for $150pw + expenses, and then they would pay the remaining $25pw.
i had a fit when i heard that, cause after all of this i can't trust them as far as i can chuck them, so told them they would not be released from the contract unless the new people paid the $175 in full.
they then worked something out with the new flatmates where they pay the $25pw for how many ever weeks there are until 30Nov.
they then were forcing me to sign the change of tenants contract literally the minute i walked in the door from my drive back from auckland. so i snapped and told them if they forced me to do any thing ill just walk away and then they can pay $175pw until the contract expires, so they should just back off a little bit. I wanted to meet my new flatmates, and speak to them about the cat - but this was unreasonable on my part apparently. I mean I only have to live with them :-? *hint sarcasm LOL.
