Fire!!!!

So the landlord finally came over to cut the lock to the French doors overlooking the street. As you may recall from previous photos, the windows are floor to ceiling and have filmy curtains for privacy. So when Mr Landlord came over, he decided to cut the lock with a sort of spinning cutting device which threw out sparks in every direction, including right toward the filmy curtains. This didn’t detract Mr Landlord from his duty… no he carried on, sans eye protection and without moving the curtains for a full 5 minutes, while I cowered in fear in the corner. I literally cannot believe the curtains didn’t catch on fire. And to top it all off, as soon as the lock finally came free, and fell on the floor, the landlord picked it up with his bare hands and then screamed in pain as he gave himself a 3rd degree burn.
Unbelievable.
