we'll chalk that one up to experience.

i have a spare room i am trying to rent out. i put an ad online. today i had 2 people come to look.

the first guy didn't have a lot to say. my friend asked a few questions, one of which gave me quite a shock... "Are you likely to have friends over often?" i mean, of course that makes perfect sense, but i hadn't even thought about that. and the tv and my desk and computer are in the same room... anyway, that's be a no for him...

the second guy walked in and asked if there would be a desk in the room, and would i provide linen, and did i have a drier. no, no and no. he then said it looks good and can he sign the contract. NO...

i have someone else coming on the weekend. we'll see how that goes, but i may end up going with the devil i know...
