Apologies Sorry Dazz and everyone else. I did update my thread (the one mentioned by Dazz on page 1: http://www.somersoft.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52940 ), but only a few months later. Tomorrow we try to return to court to retrieve the bond and rent.

Outcome I know this was a long time ago, but please could you tell me the outcome of the court case?

Thanks Wylie, good idea. The agent's didn't get mad though, at you just ringing to ask whom they use?

No, there is another cleaner, much newer looking fridge.

Neighbours told me they just use the stuff, chuck it out and then order a new lot of clothes/furniture/toys from a charity. There were 4 lounge suites around that I could see and count.

Found a letter on the kitchen counter saying the 14 yr old was due to appear in court yesterday. They should just have a standing weekly hearing with the family. Neighbours rang truancy people about the kids and they were told the family was already being tracked due to the terrorisation...
