I know from living in London how awful landlords can be. The stories I could tell you. Unbelievable.

I know you said your mother wouldn't like it if you went up against them. But is there one, small thing you could do on your own initiative?

Nothing too ambitious. Especially if you're feeling tired.
Thanks a lot for this, and I'm sorry the situation is horrible in London, too. -sighs-

In terms of stopping the mice, I'm really just trying to keep the place clean and I'm going to buy some steel wool to stuff up holes. In the meantime, I'll use aluminum foil. That's the best I can think of for now. And I know this sounds weird but thanks for saying that it doesn't have to be too ambitious. Too many times I get too hard on myself for not doing everything at once or for not doing anything "big", even though everyone has to go at their own pace and that pace may be different for others.
