Here are a few excerpts of funny letters to landlords.

The toilet is blocked and we cannot bathe the children until it is cleared.

I want some repairs done to my stove as it has backfires and burnt my knob off.

This is to let you know that there is a smell coming from the man next door.

The toilet seat is cracked: where do I stand?

I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is running away from the wall.

I request your permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.

Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.

Will you please send someone to mend our cracked sidewalk? Yesterday my wife tripped on it and is now pregnant.

Our kitchen floor is very damp, we have two children and would like a third, so will you please send someone to do something about it.

Could you please send someone to fix our bath tap? My wife got her toe stuck in it and it is very uncomfortable for us.

50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and 50% are plain filthy

Will you please send a man to look at my water. It is a funny color and not fit to drink.

It’s the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow

I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage.

````````````````````````````````

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


I always have to look at yesterday's post to determine what day it is now. headscratch


That should not however be taken as an indication of just how much I care what day it is. wink


I was able to get my license renewed this morning no problem. I was told they open at 8:30am. I was at the park with the doggies, and when I loaded them back in the truck, I called the license office to see if they had their machine working now. This was about 8:40, and no one would answer the phone. smirk


I'm thinking they are already pretty busy, so I took off driving there, and hoping it wouldn't take too long to get my new license. happydance


I never go to the license or tag office on a Monday, or on the first, or last day of the month, because I know they will be very busy, but even for a day in the middle of the week, in the middle of the month, this place was even more dead than I expected. There was one girl working, and she was helping the only other customer in there besides myself. bravo


He got his license, and then I got mine very shortly after that. hamster


She didn't like the first picture she took of me, and for a minute I thought I had broken the camera. Then I thought to myself, how many times has that ever happened before. How many times have I had my license picture taken, and heard them say, "That's not a very good picture. Let me take another one." NEVER!! haha


They're always horrible! slapforehead


Hey, have a happy day everyone.

Ana I moved here in July, and that's when I got my Oklahoma license. That was 8 years ago, and it expired at the end of July. duh

I looked at my new license and saw that it expires July 31st of 2020. smirk

Oh Nan! I wish out licenses were every 8 years. Ours are 5 like many are and are on our birthday. Usually, they just mail us a short 'form' and then we send money and they mail the license, provided we have had no tickets or accidents. I went for 15 years like that. My picture looked like someone else and I finally walked in to get a new one. rotfl

Fantastic Friday ya'll puppy

Heat advisories out everywhere. Good day to stay in. I'm going to ride the bike in the bedroom and thank God all day that I have AC. I remember southern summers with no AC and it's not fun.

I may cook books, or I may cook actual food today. We shall see wavegirl

We don't have anything planned, but we might pop out to a movie on Sunday. We shall see. Soot and I are pretty happy with quiet, and Soot is steadily working down a very long "to do" list.
