    Being evicted sounds like the best way out for tenants who have signed for 6+ months to a terrible landlord to be honest.

    Clearly the deposit was held under the DPS

        Sorry I have lived in Guildford & on the outskirts of Slough honestly they aren't even similar.

        Slough is a bit of a pit but hardly the worst.

        Guildford is far better.

          I used to know a landlord in Swindon - I think his place was the Sally Pussey

              The wife™ used to live in Guildford. Great fish shop in Burpham and London Camera Exchange in the town centre, but apart from that we don't miss the place.

                I used to visit the park next to the lido in 1966 to sail my boat in the pond. And I used to take the train to the station then walk to the newly opened town centre swimming pool in 1970(sadly closed now).

                I visited in 1999 to meet up with primary school chums I found as part of Friends Reunited. Guildford was by then a tip.

                Newlands corner is okay though....

                  Full of bl**dy two wheelers who don't look where they are going.


                  But it's not far from Albury vineyard (nice wine & gin) and the Silent Pool distillers (nice gin)

                    I knew a place there.

                    A little place that used to serve the most wonderful warm nuts by the quarter of a pound from a machine that used to sit behind the shop's counter.

                    Yes, we'd always pop in for a bag of Old Mother Maisie's cracker nuts whenever we were passing Burpham.

                    Sadly it is no longer, as I doubt is Old Mother Maisie.
