Yesterday, which started with freshers' flu and the discovery that if one must be sick, then doing it with the light off is somehow less horrible, ended on a similarly bum note with the discovery that I've been overpaying my council tax since February, because the single occupier discount wasn't being applied - the letting agent had informed the council of the tenancy, and somehow I had assumed that the discount had been included. It hadn't. Fortunately the man on the other end of the phone this morning said they'd send me a new statement and recalculate the year, so I don't think I'm going to end up overpaying, which is probably more than I deserve. Moral: double check these things!

They wanted to tell me off and charge me for the full missing amount at once, they said; but admitted it was their fault in the same letter, and offered me a revised schedule. I got a vast number of 'Welcome to your new home!' leaflets though...
