For the past year I have been renting two bed property. As the landlord was a friend of a friend we did not have any written contract and did not have to give a bond. Since then every month the rent has been paid in cash with no recipets given. I am now in the situation where I cannot afford to live there any longer and will not be able to afford next months rent so will be moving back home to my mothers but within a few days so Im only giving the landlord these few days notice. Is there anything they can hold me liable for not giving more than this?

Even though you dont have a written contract, by default you will have an AST. As youve been there a year the minimum notice period would be 1 month but, to be honest, I doubt if the landlord would bother pursuing you for it as they havent even bothered with a written contract or taken a deposit. You will have to pay your utilities bills up to date though, as this will be for services you have used, so take readings and let the companies know.
