All true, I'm afraid Cherie. Putting it down to 'experience' is the only way not to lapse into insanity I'm afraid, but it's a great shame that such scumbags will now probably ensure that yet another good landlord does not ever take on claimants again as tenants because they are not all like that - in my experience - but learning to filter out the scum from the genuinely decent is an art which I still have not fully mastered.
