Not brilliant but he sounds fair. I rented a flat with my friend Frances between 1993 & 1994. When we moved out, the landlord came to do an "inspection". He had a look around and was ticking things off. At the end, he said "There appears to be quite a few things missing, such as bedding, towel and other sundry items". I told him we used our own things and wouldn't dream of using towels etc that someone else had used
There was a huge walk-in store room in the flat. When We moved in, I remembered that there were a couple of bin bags of festering rags - I went and got the bags and asked if if the mildewing items in there were what he was talking about. He backed down pretty sharpish
Anyway, back to the thread. I knw what you mean. When Kylie has massacred a bird - I tell her "No Fish today" - she only hears the key word and badgers me until the coley has been cooked
