Yeah I know, and when they fill them in they make a bollox of them and they just come out again.
Had the alloys nearly 2 years without a single scratch on them as well

Classic, it would have been different if it had been their alloys!

It`s all a farce, if we start now on everything that`s wrong with the government etc, we`d never stop. They`re wrong `uns and that`s putting it mildly!

It would make me grumpy too. But you can send them a bill for repair.

Re: What made you grumpy today?
This is my list of grumpy things for a couple of days ago, I would have written them on the day but I was really too over the top angry to do anything.
1. I came back to Manchester after a reasonably long stay with my family in Doncaster; all of Doncaster was iced up, the Woodhead pass (my normal route) was shut so I had to head up the A1 on which if I did more than 40 MPH I was dropping fecal matter into my pants...on a plus note, the M62 was clear (awards for the people in charge of that stretch of motorway).
2. Got to my flats car park and couldn't get up the incline, thankfully a random person (who fitted the description STRANGER quite aptly, as not a word came out of his mouth) pushed me up. Then I noticed the terror as the car park has had no attention and as I rolled in, I was stuck...it took me half a hour of digging with a ice scraper and rocking the car back and forth to move it about 10 feet into a made up spot out of the way, it's been stuck there since
3. My phone line into my flat had been severed so I had no internet, or phone (obviously)
4. My freezer has broken (I should just put all my food outside)
5. I had a letter from the council issuing a court summons and a demand for £636.60 for council tax that is not mine to pay, since it's in my tenancy agreement that my council tax is included in my rent.
So far I've managed to sort out everything but my car being stuck. I hope the council tax thing is sorted because my landlord agrees that he should pay it, and I've sent off a copy of the tenancy agreement to the council - who have said to me that if it shows I don't pay council tax then they'll pass the bill to him.
HOWEVER, on the tenancy agreement under exclusions it does state that "all bills included in the rent" but in the printed part of the tenancy agreement it states that the tenant does pay the council tax and all other utilities. Which leads me to believe it's a standard tenancy agreement, and I'm stupid for not reading it in great detail. I just hope that the council take the word "bills" to mean everything, as was agreed.

Up date; due to a serious digging session which has been further aided by the snow retreating due to plus figures - the car is moving again.
It took a lot more than just sending the tenancy agreement to settle the council tax matter, however it has now been officially sorted as my landlord has paid the amount and a large portion of stress has been relieved.
