  1. Last Thursday night, our baby daughter began wheezing coughing and straining to breathe,,, Friday morning I got an emergency appointment at the doctors,,, the doctor said she needed to go to hospital. They arranged an ambulance because they said that she could deteriorate whilst crouched up in baby car seat, it was too dangerous to go by car. They put a tiny oxygen mask on her to help her oxygen levels. To cut a long story short,,, she has Bronchiolitis, inflammation in the lungs, which may be because of ammonia or other fumes etc,,, I've had very little sleep,,, and had to take three nights off work. My baby daughter is still on oxygen,, but improving, doctors said she will be in hospital for at least four days. My wife is shattered,,, as she is staying with her at hospital,, but it is difficult for her as she has autism,, all the noise, intrusions she feels more than most. I worried about bringing her home,,, I'm still waiting for Environmental Health to come,,, I'll be phoning them early Monday morning.
  2. If he tried to evict me, wouldn't he have to have a valid reason, under the new rules, also,, I could possibly appeal,,, if you get evicted,, do you loose your deposit? and also would we have to to pay for the rest of the months we originally signed up to,, until june ?
  3. Either way, my sanity and the health of my family comes first,,,, if he evicted me, would I be responsible for paying the full term that I have signed up until, which is June ? or would I be free to move on earlier ? . There are a few things that I could use to bargain with the landlord, like threatening him,,, you wouldn't want me going to court and claiming back a years rent under the new rule, would you ? ........like getting a new energy performance survey done, as the last one was back in 2011 and was borderline of E, I think. So if I paid £30 and got my own and it failed,,, could I use that in court to claim back up to a years rent,, along with an unsafe wall on main entrance that he promised he would fix last spring, the open unprotected illegal spot light fitting in the bathroom,,, polystyrene ceiling tiles in the kitchen,, and a pipe hole through the wall to the outside in the bathroom airing cupboard that has been ripped out and left. Another thing that I always wondered about, was the fact that we dont have access to our boiler,,, that I pay the gas bill for,, it is in the shop basement... is this allowed ?
  4. Yea, that is right, we have lived there for over two years,,, the shop underneath was used by the landlord as a business solutions company, but he hardly ever was there, then he moved out and was empty for a while. The current occupier, the Beauty Lounge, has only been open month or two.
  5. Hi BankFodder, Thank you for your quick reply, we feel a bit vulnerable living here with our two very little girls, your reply is very much appreciated. The Letting agent is Space4Living, they say they wont do anything about it, they only say it is a civil matter. The landlord's name is on the Tenancy Agreement, with the letting agent as a 'Care of' Address. I have just sent an email to the local Environmental Health about everything, and we will see what they say about it all. Because the landlord seems not to be bothered about it, if he does nothing or very little about it, would he be in breach of our tenancy agreement ? Cheers, KFC
  6. Hi everyone, I live in a flat with family, my wife and two very young daughters, baby aged 3 weeks and little girl 15 months, live in flat that is above a shop premises, which is a Beauty Beauty Lounge. We have complained about breathing in vapors and fumes from the shop below to the business owner, since she recently moved in, but she denies using any strong chemicals or solvents, even though she clearly advertises Nail, Hair, Spray Tans treatments etc. We have to endure headaches, and itchy eyes due to there fumes that smell like strong solvents and ammonia smells, which you can feel in your chest. We know that she does acrylic nails treatments (Acrylic solvents), spray tans (Dihyroxyacetone), hair treatments (Hair Dye and Perming Lotions etc), lip fillers, that are advertised, and other hush hush cosmetic procedures. The business is permitted under a low impact classification etc, but she is using all the basement rooms as treatment rooms, not as storage as they apparently supposed to be,, the shop at ground level,,, she rents out various positions, making it really busy at times. She calls herself a practitioner, like a doctor, does this contravene the premises use classification ? The business apparently has no waste collection whatsoever,, all waste chemicals go straight down the sinks and drains, sharps and bio waste she most likely dumps in her household waste. She opens up in the morning usually about 9:30 am, and stays open until late at night, closing at sometimes 10 pm or so. All the while that she is open, she has music playing constantly, which we can hear in every room and can't get away from it in our living accommodation, and is becoming a real nuisance. We are worried about the long term effects of breathing in these fumes as she has no extraction at all, but fear that if fume extraction is put in, that we would still be affected in the summer when the windows are open. Also we are worried about the fire risk, as she has no fire extinguishers or fire alarm. Then there is the question of how flammable chemicals are stored, and what leakage measures she has. We have only one exit, though the kitchen, and have to vacate down a wooden staircase, with this underneath, it is a constant worry. Her fire exit also comes through our basement that we use as a utility room, which has no ceiling, just bare wooden joists etc, with no exit lighting or proper exit door. I have also asked her on a number of occasions, if she could turn down the Bass on her music, that she has going BOOM BOOM BOOM, usually from about 9:30 am, until late about 8/9 pm, sometimes later. Her verbal reply was basically, it's a beauty salon,, what do you expect, her text reply below, "to be quite frank I'm getting sick of it now I'm running a business and you live above a shop... your complaining about noise on a Saturday afternoon. I'm legally allowed to play music from 7am to 11pm." Sometimes, its like a party downstairs, and she is running her venue it like that, with celebration drinks for clients and friends. This is totally unacceptable and impossible to live with. The letting agent says it is a Civil Matter, and there is nothing that they can do. The landlord has replied, through the letting agents, and said, I'm not sure what I can do but talk to his commercial tenant in the shop, which doesn't sound like he is bothered or taking it very seriously at all. Please can you advise us asap,, as we are really struggling living with these problems.
  7. Hi, it was a forced adoption case, the original hearing in the Luton Courts, Judged by HHJ Lindsey Davies where my partner was misled by social services. Then an appeal hearing was started, and it was sent to London Courts, heard by Justice Eleanor King. It was then refereed back to the Luton Courts, where the appeal was heard by HHJ Lindsey Davies. Surely a conflict of interests, my understanding is that the appeal Judge is there to check what the original Judge has done wrong. Thanks.
  8. My partner has Autism and OCD, this was not taken into consideration at any point of the Court Proceedings, does this constitute to an unfair trial ? Is it against the rules to have the Same Judge at your Appeal hearing, as at your original trail, in the (secret) Family Courts ? If other rules were also breached, causing an unfair trial, can I subsequently take any action in respect of these ? Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Many Thanks
  9. I made an offer to pay the amount in less than 14 days and filled out the admission form, sending it by recorded delivery to Carters, after which I received a letter from Carters accepting my offer and a Judgement for Claimant form. I paid blindly, because my partner was seriously ill at the time and the address for the Claimant was in the USA ! I was struggling to cope and it seemed easier just to pay it. Have I got these dates below worked out right ? Issue date 21 Jan Day of service 26 Jan 14th day of the day of service 8 Feb Judgement for the Claimant / Acceptance letter from Carters, dated 8 Feb There was no explanation of the extra amount, the £40 added to the total amount or any reference or mention of it at all !

  11. I have recently taken a closer look at an old CCJ that I have almost paid off and found a discrepancy of £40. Claim amount £285 + Court fee £15 + Solicitor's cost £50, giving a Total Amount on the blue N1 claim form is £350. (added cost £65) On the Judgement for Claimant, N30, it states - £285 for the debt and £105 for costs, you must pay the claimant a total of £390 Have I missed something, or have Bryan Carters awarded themselves £40 more costs ?
  12. What injury ? ....the poor child had the Flu ! ....the retarded doctors couldn't find anything wrong. We sendin letter to the police, who and why it was reported to the police in the first place, What exactly ie, evidence did they act on ? Jus wastin police time. If there was any history, marks, injury etc which there was absolutely none whatsoever, then I agree it best to check it out etc. When the police get back to us, we gonna update you on here. I was jus askin how best to proceed, cos it was an unbelievable and nonsensical overreaction. The police banging the door down at 11 pm is over the top, all the neighbours finding out what it all about is a bit worrying and mud sticks even if you done nowt wrong.
  13. Thank you stu007, I think that finding out exactly who did what and why, is the way to get to the bottom of it all. Then my friend can decide what to do next. They a bit upset and shocked by it all, and how this could be allowed to happen.
  14. Thanks for the reply King12345, it seems so over the top and out of order to send the police round when there was nothing to suggest any abuse was going on, no bruises, cuts, injuries at all ! My friend just wants to reassure his wife, and vindicate themselves from any wrongdoing, after all, their son was just ill with a virus ! I think he would like to complain etc, to stop some other poor person having to go through the same awful thing ! I feel terrible for them, and am just trying to help them.
  15. I forgot to say - that there were NO Bruises, cuts, marks whatsoever on his son, or fractures, he was examined by lots of times, they just didn't know what was wrong with or why he was dragging his leg etc. I was thinkin that he should make a formal complaint to the hospital, I think that the Police were just doing their Job. Where should he make formal complaint to, should it be addressed to the hospital or somewhere else ? Given that mud sticks, his wife is worrying and their neighbours think that they beat their kids. ! .
