Got a place!
Saw a place this morning. Well, I say saw...what I really mean is, I went to a place this morning. The landlady (is it still a landlady for property, or is that just pubs? Answers on a postcard!) called me a few minutes before I got there, to tell me that it seems the last tenant changed the locks, and because it's Sunday, she can't get to the letting agent to get the proper keys which the last guy handed back.No matter, I was there anyway, so I had a look through the windows. The place looks nice - a full length lounge with window at each end, which is what I wanted, but also the stairs ran along a wall, instead of straight down the middle of the lounge like they usually do in terraced houses round here. More importantly, the landlady seems absolutely spot on - really friendly, really keen to help out where she can.
Long story short, I decided to fly blind and went for it. The tenancy agreement is signed, deposit paid, and I get the keys on Thursday. All I need to do now is pack everything I own, clean my current place right through, and find a company that can move me on Friday or Saturday of this week. Oh, and get back a deposit I've already paid to another agent.
That'll be fun. I predict woe.
