It's only a week late and apparently it's because of trouble she's having with her housing benefitso I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt, but it's annoying because all my bills are still going to go out on the 1st, so I'll have to find the money from somewhere else until she pays me.

She's only lived there a month so this would be her first payment after the initial deposit and rent she paid up front, so hopefully she's telling the truth and it's just the council, but it's still irritating that I'm out of pocket.
