Job's in London so I'm house hunting at the moment. Haven't got my contract yet so haven't handed in my notice.

I could of course use the new offer to blackmail my current company though. Hmmmm

I'm a student doing History and International Relations, and, all modesty aside, I'm bloody great at it. I can get through a whole bag of pickled onion flavour, corn based baked snacks in minutes.

On my days off I'm a much loved poet for an internet site. The forum users love me, but I'd rather not say which site that is, just to save them from having to pretend not to like my rhymes.

Even a Flat is gold-dust in London.

A House? Unless you are prepared to live in an insalubrious part of town or are ready to pay a king's ransom - forget a house in London.

Why?

I've been looking for a flatshare now for 3 months! Bloody expensive for 1 room, but it'll save me £100 a week in travel costs.

Your rhymes, if those on this site are anything to go by, are awesome

Thanks for the advice, where can I rent a decent flat/house outside London where I can make it to the City in time for work at 9am and get home before 7pm.

My office is close to Fenchurch Street station and London Bridge Station

Friend of mine is looking for a flat after his Mrs had to relocate to Manchester for 6 months. He was telling me how when looking for flats with other occupants in it, it's like a job interview. I find that baffling, seeing as the biggest City I've lived in is Sheffield.

Oh Jay you charmer

Words like that will win your aunt,
Even though you look like an Ant,
And not the Ant from Dec and Ant,
God we do have some great Bant-
Er.

Aye they are Dark. "Tell us a little bit about yourself"

I wonder if I should stop opening the conversation with "Well, I blew my last house up"

TRC, I'd be a terrible expert at anything.

I'd never seen anyone rhyme 'Up' with 'Up 5 times in a row until I saw MC Park.

<bow> It takes a 'special' wordsmith to perform such a feat. Some have likened me to Morrissey...

That is a tough question, MUDD. Has so many variables.

By outside London, do you mean surrounding counties and shires? e.g Kent, Surrey, Sussex etc?

Or outside 'central London'?

Ideally, you'd want to do it yourself - and if you have the energy and knowhow, fine.

But in your case, i would plump for an agent - go into one and have an informal chat, telling them what you want and see as much properties as you can within your time frame. Sure it is more expensive via estate agents but it is also the easiest.

My missus and i procured a small pied-à-terre in London earlier in the year by ourselves, without an agents help and it took us a while.
