    Attention anyone who rents their home through a letting agent - your thoughts please

    Some agents have a clause in their contracts where they receive a % fee for "introducing" a tenant to a landlord if the landlord then takes the tenant on privately. To stop this happening without their knowledge, they insist on doing a "check-out" service to make sure the existing tenant leaves...

    Falmer - in memory

    I think it's a fantastic idea. My Dad took me to all the home games at Withdean until he passed away in 2002. I still go regularly but it obviously will never feel the same. For all those times I've wished to see him in the crowd it would be amazing to see him there at Falmer, home at last...

    Today I quit smoking for good

    I gave up on Sunday 1st July. Not really anything to do with the ban as I would quite happily sit outside the pub for a cig, but my husband hated it & I felt it was about time to try to quit again.

    What does Steine actually mean?

    I work in the Old Steine & whilst we have our address as Old Steine, the solicitors next door have their address as Old Steyne with a different post code... No idea why though!

    Are Letting Agents Thieving Bastards?

    Don't go to Just Lets - they are an absolute bunch of incompetent fools. I only went with them because they were "Friends of the Albion" & ended having to pay a solicitor to threaten them with legal action if they didn't return my tenant's deposit to me. They never took any calls, didn't...

    Anyone quit smoking recently I need some tips?

    That's an interesting point though, because I read Alan Carr's book & found it really patronising at times & in parts, obviously aimed at a male reader. eg. the number of golfing euphamisms he uses (I don't play golf!) I gave up for a couple of days, but started again on the day of an abseil...
