    I've been there. About 10 years ago, I was renting a flat that was repossessed because the landlord wasn't paying the mortgage. On receiving the first notice, I spoke to a solicitor who told me I had no rights whatsoever and there would be an eviction notice in due course. So I stopped paying the rent, and waited to be evicted, which came 4 months later.

    Only problem was that I only ended up with 7 days notice of eviction, rather than the 28 days I'd been led to believe, which caused lots of grief and I ended up in a B&B for a week. But still, 4 months of rent free living wasn't bad at all. I bought a new car with the money I'd saved.
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

          At last, a news story that doesn't focus on all the 'poor' home owners that have over-stretched themselves.

          Cry me a river, if I have endure one more 'news' story that some buggers that were in a relationship and bought a property but have now split up but can't move out and so have to continue living together and it's "such a difficult situation to be in" I might... well, not scream as that's a bit over-dramatic, but I'll at least bitch and moan about it (the British way).

            Why is noone discussing the more serious matter at hand here?

            It's not "Oh For FFS" FFS, it's "Oh FFS"!
            What do you think the first F stands for?!!

              Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
