First of all Happy New Year! Now I need to rant, I bought my son a mini fridge to use in his room at uni for christmas. We didn't buy a fridge before he moved in September as we thought the kitchen facilities would be more hygenic then they have turned out to be. As I bought the fridge for him, he had not asked permission prior to taking it back to uni, (i thought it would be a formality that he would need it physically there in the building to PAT test and say whether or not it was OK. But because he has turned up with said fridge, he is not being allowed to keep it whether he applies for permission or not! He apparently can now only have a fridge if he has a VALID reason, when asked what circumstance would be a valid reason i was told I'm not going to tell you! I know in hind sight that maybe when it said 'if you wish to have your own small fridge in your bedroom you need agreement from the management I thought it was that they just wanted to know about it so that they could check that it was OK electrically and charge the £50 extra on the rent(both of which we fully expected to do) So please other than the communal fridge is totally disgusting and people pinch your cheese can anyone think of what the valid reason might be (perhaps its to keep you own penicilin in)
