Rosie, I think if it were me, I'd follow kidkruger's advice - he seems to have hit the nail on the head:


>>>>Get rid of it snd say you lost it.

Get rid of it and say you we're 'burgled'.

Get rid of it then before end of tenancy replace it with a sofa 2nd hand from EDF of equal quality (you'll likely be able to get better quality) quite cheaply. You can say something like a friend weed on it - something which writes-off the landlord wanting to keep it but shows you've resolved/improved his sofa situation.

Surely you left the window open while you were making tea in the other room, and a fox got in and shat on the sofa? No sane* person would ever want a sofa after that. You had no choice but to replace it out of the kindness of your heart, obviously.




*Of course this plot hinges on your landlord being sane...

Jesus, when my decomposing, cat-eaten corpse (they break in you know) is found seeping into the covers, he's not going to want it back anyway...


Fizzy cola bottles cannot quench my existential angst.


Actually, I'm not sure anything can quench an angst, especially not these little cocknballs-shaped haribo.

    • Hi - a friend sent me this link…   The car is neither abandoned nor stolen! (Nor ever has been, so not sure why that has been suggested). It is mine, I collected it from service (and MOT as identified by some on here) on Friday, driving home it had a bit of a hissy fit and broke down! AA attended on Friday, could not recover it until this morning. Spoken to the nice people inside Westminster carpet on Friday who couldn’t have been kinder, I moved the car back from the doors of the property as best I could without blocking more parking spaces. Recovery should be here imminently. Apologies for any inconvenience.
    • That's very odd if they won't answer. Do they just say "no, we won't tell you that"? I can understand they wouldn't want you to get the bread direct from their source instead of from them, but why not just say that? If they baked it themselves, I imagine they would be only too happy to let people know.
    • Possibly one of the other local garage owners may know? Also, it's possible if the owners and staff are still in the area that they might see your post. They didn't post on here themselves (to the best of my knowledge) but they must have known that I did, as a couple of times the lady who worked in reception phoned me to ask me if I could  post in the "Lost" section when something dropped in Hansler Road had been handed in to them. Unfortunately I only have their office landline  number, which presumably disappeared when they closed. Good luck! Hopefully your service manual may turn up in an unexpected place.
    • Well, that was my initial thought too, but having re-read the thread, it seems that the car was left outside Westminster Carpets. Maybe even middle-aged Lotharios can't ignore the low, low prices in their 'Remnants, Offcuts & Roll-End Sale'.   Do you know anyone with a second generation Fiat Punto (1999-2010)? Because 5 to 1, the key will fit.  I'm out of the country, watching the cricket, just now but if you can get it down to the Catford/Sydenham borders in the next couple of hours, I've got a mate who can 'look after' it. It'll be at Tilbury docks by 6 o'clock. Have you ever driven a car with an F1 style, flappy paddle gearbox before?
