Yes it is a touch on the wrong side of moral, but a) I wouldnt call
waltzing in unimpeded like I did "forcing", b) I wasnt trying to do
anything that will impact on anyone else one way or another, and c) Im

good money for is woefully insecure. Lets just hope the management
company will listen to me and get it sorted.
