 With pubs it boils down to how quick and cheap you want it
	With pubs it boils down to how quick and cheap you want itIf you want it quick and cheap it'll be pre-prepared and microwaved, if you want it prepared and cooked individually you'll have to wait and the cost will be higher. I don't see a problem with this as long as it's stated up front.

Anyway gonz, their lease should have a clause that they won't cause a nuisance or annoyance to any other resident. But you can't enforce this as you aren't a party to his lease. So in turn you need to check your lease for a clause enabling you to get the landlord to enforce it. Which you would have to fund. Sooooo no. Stick with shitting on their mat.
