Our 'housemate' did a runner in the middle of the night, having not paid two months rent, and bills... packed up all of his stuff and just disappeared.
There was always something sneakily suspicious about him... he was always Mr 'Yeah Yeah Yeah'...
I am furious... as is my other housemate whose actual place and mortgage is being violated.
We always knew he was a selfish bastard and there had been issues in the past with him but FFS, this sort of shit isn't supposed to happen when you are all of a certain age, living in a share house of professionals.

Welcome to world of small claims tribunals and henchmen getting heavy.
