We’re n00bs.

Hey all,

Wer’re in the process of buying a flat in the “outbuilding” on Institute Place… we’re pretty close to completing and are really looking forward to moving in and being part of the community!

We just wanted to ask a couple of questions if possible…

1) How would we go about buying/renting a car parking space?

2) in the lease it mentions that the management company paint the exterior and interior of the flats at regular intervals… does that mean they redecorate the inside of all the flats - does that then mean we can’t decorate ours ourselves and ask them not to come in and paint it?

3) in the lease it also mentions no satellite dishes but there are clearly a few around the flats… are they strict about this?

4) I’m not sure how many of the flats have old Parquet floor in them… ours appears to but it’s covered with a laminate.. has anyone restored theirs? if so, was it in decent condition and how complicated was the process!?

Hope to meet you guys very soon!

Mouse Problem! May we borrow your cat?

Hi All,

In the past week we had a very unwelcome mouse in our flat. I suspect he entered when we replaced our floor. But, I am pressed to get rid of it before it starts breeding! I plan to set up cruetly-free mouse traps but, could really use a good mouse-hunter!

So, if you think your cat would be up for the job we’d love to have him/her for a night! We’re a house of cat lovers and we’d be very happy to provide food, lots of treats and water… not to mention the entertainment of a good hunt! ;)

Please let us know if you can help!

Thank you!

selclene cleaners

we have used this company for about 6 years. You have to pay a bit more but you do know that the cleaner is getting at least minimum pay rate and no less; that you are insured for any breakages or issues caused by them and that you have some recompense if you need to contact company to change the cleaner. We have had a number of cleaners over that time but all of them have been good.

cat crap

Hi

I’ve no objections to the seemingly thousands of cats that wander the building, but recently some of them seem to have been getting together and leaving a generous amount of crap in the lightwell outside my window.

Can anyone advise what I can do to stop this?

The culprits today were two ginger numbers who I caught red handed.

Who do these belong to? My only thinking is a dousing with a bucket of water but less extreme suggestions will be listened to first…

bike villain

to the person who, over the last 6 months, has been repeatedly mutilating the bike seats in the 32-58 building stairwell with a sharp object:

i don’t know what’s prompted this deranged sociopathic behaviour but if it continues I will bring you to justice. my justice.

anyone with information get in contact.

Broken Intercom

Is the intercom for the gate on Institute Place ever going to be fixed? I’ve lived here for two years and it seems many other people have the same problem when it comes to couriers’ deliveries i.e. you have to put a note up with your mobile number, otherwise the courier attempts to ring your flat number on the keypad and gets through to an old man living in a dungeon three streets away who screams obscenities.

From Flat 10: Dear Anonymous Neighbor

Since I moved in roughly a year ago, you have left me number of letters and notes, usually dropped in through my mail slot. They all share their disapproval of my conduct as your neighbor, and I would really like to introduce myself properly and discuss some of the more recent issues you have raised, as I feel that some of them stem from a misunderstanding.

Unfortunately, you never identify yourself in your letters! Could you please drop me an email, or send me a text, or give me a call, so that we can arrange a date and time to say ‘Hello’ to each other and put these issues at rest?

Sincerely, Philip / philip@packts.net / 07825189067
