OUR UPSTAIRS NEIGHBOUR, WHOM WE CANNOT NAME BECAUSE HE IS VERY LITIGEOUS, IS BEHAVING LIKE A REAL PRAT.. HE DOESN'T SEE WHY HE SHOULD PAY FOR AN ELECTRICIAN TO SORT OUT HIS WONKY WIRING.. AND HE'S THE OWNER, HE'S NOT A RENTAL TENANT!

Prat is not strong enough to describe this mentally deficient person, if you know your Cockney slang then the expression J. Arthur will describe him to you.

The plot goes as follows.. she received an email very late last night from the managing agents saying that the power had gone out in Flat 3 and would she give access to an electrician to come and see if the fuse box was in our electrical cupboard, certainly she replied by email, they could come between 08.30 & 12.30am this morning.

No response by email this morning so she called the office and that was when we made the comment about office wallahs having an easy life in our previous post. Eventually this poor woman telephoned to say that the problem appeared to be as follows.. it's his electrics that are faulty but he doesn't want to pay for an electrician to come out and sort them out.

Hello? And since when has one been able to get other people to pay for repairs like this in one's property that, incidentally, he owns?

So as it was raining quite hard and she was feeling somewhat lazy and could cancel the days appointments with no problem, she emailed the landlord before 12.00am saying that she would cancel her days' appointments so that this ....... could get an ełectrician in today up until 18.00 (6.00pm).

Therefore, he has had from 08.30 until 18.00 hours and not arranged anything. But, she added, there would be NO access granted over the week end and the next time that access is being granted is between 08.30 and 12.30am on Monday, September 21st.

Ah.. the bliss of emails.. for now there it is, down in black and white that access was given, she has done exactly what was required and fulfilled her legal obligations but the man has not organised an electrician to come.

We don't think he is actually here, she saw him sliding off last Monday with a large knapsack on his back and without his bicycle, we think he is up in Oxford, the poor secretary at the managing agents confirmed that she had communicated with him on his mobile.

And it will be extremely funny (both peculiar and haha) to see what happens next! For the managing agent won't do it and try to get the money back from the man, they know they would never get the money back as he never pays for anything unless he absolutely HAS to!

Oh.. hohoho.. can an Energy company cut your power supply off without accessing the meter? I wonder if EDF, who are the suppliers to this flat, have cut his power off! Now there's a thought.

Well anyway, the farce will start again on the 21st and as it's not the responsibility of the agents and he'll need and want the power back, well, he'll have to pay an electrician to do it.

Meanwhile, the second floor is very dark and his meter.. well, it has moved not one unit!

GeeGee Parrot.
