Update.. with the legal issues continuing, I have been very busy attending to solicitors, so with that being said, time is dragging other things need addressing.
In order for leasing a property, its important to maintain a good relationship between yourself and the landlord and visa versa...that has now broken down, to a point, im very unsure about it from my side.
However, since looking back at emails from the beginning what I thought was verbal agreements now transcends into writing, Andrea did infact dot her I&Ts
So to get a basic understand of the lease it was a full repair and maintain lease, which I fully understood from the outset, there is a clause within the lease and its the condition clause this is so vital to the lease, my very first stipulation was a water tight roof
Second stipulation was all electrics and fire to be up to date and compliant to the legal requirement and laws
But also the lease is important upon leaving, any repairs would be my responsibility to put right.
First problem roof, I thought it was fully covered, to meet the water tight condition, in July when I couldn't open for a second time that's when I found out the whole of the roof had not been covered, I did have someone to inspect, but the work was still on going so we thought the extended part of the unit was going to be done too, I found out this wasn't the case when I was taken on the roof in July and saw that part of the roof was not covered.
I was having the lease over 15 years and by that time the roof could of deteriated to a point I would have had to recover it upon leaving.
The second stipulation was the fire and electrics, the landlord was to pay for his share that hasn't transpired.
I never went into this to make huge profits, I solely went into it, because I was surrounded by talented people and their talented best buddies, and also I could see the social side that improved people's lives, and trying to take away time spent travelling to train, to come this far is the biggest blow, but I fully understand this was not just my dream, it was all of yours too, so that is why I'm continuing to fight, but one thing that came out of all of this was the people I met and for all of those who really supported me however big or small ,from a packet of sweets and a chat, to seeing people grafted like trojans, I'll never forget it and will always be truly thankful from the bottom of my heart, even if you forget me, I will never forget you and to all of those people checking in still and making sure, im okay thank you again, for me there was a real sense of community, I havent had a break from all of this since I started the work the pressure and stress has taken a toll, not just myself but my family and pets.
This doesn't mean it's the end, it just means it's still on going but there are things now I need to address that's not legal, now I have time to look at things
So thank you for your patience and I hope this can get sorted not for me, but for you guys
Andrea
