landlord issue
S

hi everyone
I am in need of some advice please
I asked my landlord for a bed (before moving in), this was asked through the agency,
he apparently agreed

it has been already 5 months and no news from the landlord (or the bed!)

the real estate lady is really nice about it, telling me she will call or email the landlord, but then the week passes, and nothing happens.

If I stop paying rent (because he has not sent me a bed!) I will receive bad credit upon myself.
I continue to pay rent and there is no bed.
If this is the case, then a tenant is always at the losing end.

Is it possible for the landlord to agree to something in the beginning, and then change his mind about it and keep quiet and ignore all calls/email from the real estate agency?

What else can I do?

thanks love satchi

Don't believe in god, I personally like the idea of viking/greek type gods i.e. blokes with hammers and lightening bolts -.


sneaks this reminds of the TV series "Spartacus: Blood and Sand"
have you seen it? when I watched the pilot I thought it was so gory and the setting so fake.
but later the plot in the story grew, I finished watching ALL the episodes.
In the end, Spartacus killed everybody.
Don't know what happened after that.

wow! its 65% for "no" now and increase to 21% for yes
thank you so much for all your votes :-)

maybe it has to do with higher education; so negative correlation between higher education and belief in God :-)
no debate intended, thanks

hi everyone
In my lab, almost all my lab-mates do not believe in God.
I'm just curious about this (and will not make any judgement of your answer)
I also don't want to start a debate.

thanks

funny bit
S

hi all, want to share this: someone just sent me :-)
love satchi

In a convent in Ireland , the 98-year-old Mother Superior lay dying. The nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her last journey comfortable. They tried giving her warm milk to drink but she refused it. One of the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen. Then, remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had been received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and poured a generous amount into the warm milk. Back at Mother Superior's bed, they held the glass to her lips. The frail nun drank a little, then a little more and before they knew it, she had finished the whole glass down to the last drop. As her eyes brightened, the nuns thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with their spiritual leader. "Mother," the nuns asked earnestly, "Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us." She raised herself up in bed on one elbow, looked at them and said: "Don't sell that cow."

glasses?

Do you think this would be ok - tucked out, with black trousers? - seems quite dull, but safe I guess??

silver jewellery question
S

hi JepsonClough, Natassia, Sneaks, Pamw
thanks for your tips :-) and for the cleaning solution Sneaks!
I will wear my necklace then!!!! :-)

I am also tempted to buy Tibetan silver jewelery from ebay!!!!! Has anyone got tibetan silver?

There's also something else I heard: which is NOT to combine silver and gold jewelery together because silver eats up the gold.
is this true?

love satchi

Another Latex question

hi max
sorry I'm still a new user, just trying :-)
do you think its because the figure is not labeled?
after \label there's no {fig:h!} Height11}
thats why Latex is printing the image file name

this is the simple figure syntax I use

\begin{figure}[hbtp]
\begin{center}
\scalebox{.30}{\includegraphics{TimothyAB}} \caption{
\label{fig:Timothy} Demonstration by Timothy}
\end{center}

silver jewellery question
S

hi, please can somebody give me some advice:

1. If silver is silver, then sterling silver is just plated silver, right?
2. If one wears silver jewelery (say necklace) would we have to remove it everyday before taking a shower?
3. Is anyone wearing silver jewelery without taking it off everyday?

someone gave me a very nice silver necklace, I'm finding it a hassle to put on/open the clasp.
I also want to keep it looking new for as long as possible.

advice much appreciated
thanks
love satchi

stupid question
S

hi everyone I'm wondering if its just me or the long sun hours.

Is anybody having trouble sleeping at night or eating dinner during this time?

I find that dinner time doesn't feel like dinner time and I don't have much appetite.
I also can't fall asleep now, it seems too bright all the time.
And when I wake up, I also don't have any appetite for breakfast.
The only time I really feel hungry is around noon and that's because I did not have any breakfast.

ok now Im going to try to sleep
goodnight
