Grant, Sarah and I have decided to move from our flat in Stepney to somewhere in the West of London. We really like our current place but our neighbours and the travel time are a bit much. So we (in that I mean Sarah) have been looking for somewhere in the Ealing or Chiswick area. Very beautiful area, lots of green stuff around and a nicer area to live.

So we found this great little place in Chiswick. Two bedrooms, a small open-plan lounge and kitchen and a garden all to ourselves. £230 a week for the entire house. We put in an offer for that price as long as the landlord puts a new kitchen in (he had agreed to this already) and he comes back saying he doesn’t want 3 people living in it. What a load of crap! Now we have to start again from square one. This was such a nice little place and the landlord is worried about having both bedrooms filled. Wanker!

We went looking again today and only managed to see one place. Working full time means that the only time we can look is after 6pm and Saturdays. Our lease runs out at the end of February so we need somewhere soon. I don’t want to be rushed and have to chose out of necessity instead of what the place looks like. Plus work has been hell for Grant and I this week (I worked a full day over-time in 2 days) and it doesn’t look like it will get any better. So life is a little stressful but still the best experience I have ever had. Cmon London!
