Ravenous Pigeon Digest

28.5.11

I was wrong. The worst thing about moving (this time anyway) was not the stupid IKEA furniture. There are so many things to choose from that could be considered the worse.

Was it the disconnected electricity that prevented us moving in for a full week after signing the lease? Or the filthy new apartment complete with cupboard filled insect droppings and grease from a thousand fry pans. Or maybe its the rats in the attic which wake us up at 5am every morning with their gnawing and scratching. Then there's the leaky taps, etc...

And all that is without mentioning the cleaners who I'd been forced to hire (after a mean, mean letting agent threatened to keep our deposit) turned out to be drug addicts.

I've also been without internet for the last month. It should only have been a week but the internet provider forgot to ask me for some details, left my application on hold and I only found out after I called up to complain. So I've had to apply to a different, more expensive place to have a hope of getting an internet connection soon.

It really would be nice to buy a house next time.
