As I´m sure you´re all aware, I am not in Leeds this year, though I will be returning next year. This means I will need somewhere to live.

Ideally, I would like to be a subwarden in a hall on campus, due to it being the cheapest and most convenient option. However, if I am unsuccessful in this, I will need to find somewhere else.

What I´m asking is, is there anyone here whose house will have a spare room next year, and which has not yet been reserved for someone else? I am of course not asking anyone to definitively say that they´ll offer the room to me at this point, as I´m still not entirely sure what I´m going to do. But is there anyone who at least wouldn´t mind the idea of living with me?

Thanks Smiling

I'm gonna need a place to stay next year too. I'll be going for the subwarden option first, but if that fails I wouldn't mind moving into any spare room either.

Would anyone mind if Tom and I were both in their house? Obviously the idea of a couple sharing with others would be a bit iffy, but it would certainly make things easier for Tom and I, in terms of being able to see each other on a regular basis without making a 25 minute walk through the dark and only seeing each other's housemates for half of the year!

We've just talked about this and agree that it's a definite maybe, so if anyone has more than one spare room would they be alright with Tom and I occupying them?

I believe he's inviting you to scroll up and read the post he made near the top of the thread, which says he has 3 spare rooms next year if he stays in his current house

And you´re not with They Who Must Not be Named, are you?

Nope, I'm with KD Willis. They're fairly good. Seem to get most stuff done quickly. I occasionally need to hassle them.

 

It's £60pw at the mo, but may go up slightly next year....

I think with bills it works out around £72 per week. although I pay slightly more than my housemates, as I wanted the worlds fastest internet package. It's seriosly tasty... Heh

How much are your bills? £14 seems alot, i pay £3 per week for gas and electric, 25p for internet, £2.20 for phone and i though that was steep, people seem to complain about paying that much.

I work that out at only £12 pw not £14.

If you wish to provide proof for your theory of 72-60 = 14, then go ahead

Okay, here's a breakdown... Roughly...

Per month 

£260 rent

£32.50 Water/Gas (paid quarterly)

£5 phone/internet (although I pay £15, and Drew £10 as we use lots of bandwith, so we have a more pricey package..)

£4 or so water (paid Biannually)

 £2.10 TV lisence (Paid Annually)

 

+ Bog Roll, bleach, scourers, fairy liquid, "Protection Money" etc...

 

Which is actually around £67.50 with bills.... 

 

I pay a tenner more than that though for internet, and I usually end up buying all the "+" bits... (Though I've gone on bog roll nazi strike recently, coz Kyle wastes it all as jizz rags...)

As I say though, I suspect rent will go up next year, probs to £280 a month, but I;m really just speculating...

 

 

Are you clean tidy people, or do you shit on the kitchen floor and smash plates in the hallway?

Don't put sugar puffs in sieves. They smell forever if you do

There is one sieve in my house which is mine, like most things (bar some of abbies and gordons) in the house/kitchen, which always seems to be dirty even if ppl have attempted to clean it :S

I ordered my sieve from Wilkinsons. It came with a pink fairy duvet and three broken mirrors I didn't want.

Do not order your sieve from Wilkinsons.

haha. I bought my sieve in person from wilkos, but you want a collander for sugar puffs. I shall certainly not let him tuna my sieve, as It is a sacred piece of Veggie only equipment Smiling

I thought you only had 2 available?

And sieves aren't that hard to clean per se, though the smell of tuna never completely goes away.

I think I am gonna try to get into a house as opposed to applying to be a subwarden. Sure it's cheaper, but I won't be back in the UK in time for the interviews now and I'd prefer to be able to go out whatever night I wanted to!
