Dreadful Nonsense

"I've read your blog. it's really funny. you should write a column." - Jon Ronson

Contestant Number One
...is a middle aged lady who sounded Russian. She was supposed to be here at 3pm, she arrived at 2.45pm while I was standing in my bedroom shouting 'woman like a man' by Damien Rice at the top of my voice to try and get myself into a positive frame of mind.

The Old Russian Lady (who had seen too much) didn't really speak much English, and didn't really seem too interested, although it was difficult to tell. She said she'd ring back on Monday, and although I've heard that before, I chose to believe her. I don't think she'd really fit in here though, and I wish her good luck in finding another flat.

Contestant Number Two
...followed the Old Russian Lady (10 shiny pounds to you if you can tell me where that quote is from) up the stairs, but I'm not sure she's going to be able to make the rent. It's actually the small grey cat that lives in the building next door, and she's still her after about 40 minutes. Currently, she's pummelling my teddy bear, and generally being very cute.
