a very good friend of mine is starting her first year at leeds uni in september and is yet to find accomodation; however she is urgently in need of moving to the area asap /in the next fortnight or so due to a deteriorating relationship with her frankly victorian jailer of a landlord/boyfriend.
all she requires is a room in a rented shared house / squat/ bedsit where she is allowed to have her (phenomenally cute) staffordshire bull-terrier puppy to live and occcassionaly smoke cigarettes without any of said landlord's smack-head mates coming round and robbing her. she's got money up front and a full grant lurking in the wings.
she is (probably) house-trained and will only get uncontrollably and happily drunk if encouraged.
can't vouch for her taste in music ("new model who?" "the sisters of mercy? aren't they goths?") but 26 year-old pagan-hippy chicks are a law unto themselves....but did i mention that she is a very good friend of mine?
anyone who knows of anything or anyone please PM me. and i'll owe you one.
ta.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

I start my first year at Leeds in September. I'm in a dorm so can't be much help with living space, but if she needs someone to have a drink with or just some company in a new town feel free to pass on my email. PM if you wish...
Nationalise the f**king lot.

...And I'll gladly point her away from boozers full of grumpy locals
You never know, we may just bump into one-another on the mean streets of Headingley. Top Clue: I'm the one in black pushing the pink buggy

To be honest, the puppy might be a problem for rented accomodation; as we found out with the dogfiend, a 'no pets' clause seems to be pretty standard in most letting agreements.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

Seconded, I'd say 80 to 90% of both singular landlords and agencies are anti-pet.
I'll keep my eyes peeled - I found a roommate through the LJs, so recommend she try that as well.
Luck!

you'd think, wouldn't you, that landlords would prefer to have dogs protecting their properties for them.
cheers anyway dudes.
