Sounds exactly like my Nan when my grandfather was alive. He used to complain that the mattress was lumpy and so she must have had money stuffed in it !!
Answerbank for me ... people at work keep asking me why I'm not on Facebook but it's really so they don't get to see how little friends and social life I have ... :-)
I was 6 days late paying my rent once when I had my own company. The bar stud landlord sent the bailiffs in, and the bailiffs handed me a piece of paper telling me to pay (but didn't collect a signature to prove they'd been). 1 week later I get a bill for £849 for "attendance fees" or something. I sued the gits and won ! Their fault for not following procedures.
