Still looking for a lodger
Jan. 6th, 2007 04:08 amOh, yes, while I remember, as per
flickgc's suggestion:
Here we go again...
Last time I advertised my room on Gumtree, I got a crack addict who stole about £2000's worth of stuff and legged it, so I am a little reluctant to go down that route again.
So out here in sunny Surrey, I am looking for an occupant for my spare room once again. As soon as possible, in fact.
I'm looking for about £80/wk plus a share of the bills. It's a spacious, sunny furnished room (about 3m x 2.5m) with quite a bit of shelf space, a single bed (but that might be changeable) & built-in wardrobes, in a 3-bed house otherwise occupied by just me.
I'm at CR4 3SB: south London, a fairly pleasant 15min walk from Colliers Wood Tube, which is in Zone 3 on the Northern Line. I'm also 15min from the Croydon Tramlink (Phipps Bridge) & a mainline station at Tooting (on 1st Capital Connect, i.e., Thameslink). It's about 20min on a #264 bus to Croydon or 10min on various routes to Wimbledon & thus the District Line for West London, Clapham Junction and so on. (If a 15min walk from the Tube is too much, you can hop on a 152 bus for about 5min, from outside the Tube to a couple of minutes' walk away.)
It's well-served by nightbuses - both the N155 & N44 run from Trafalgar Square to near here all night.
8Mb broadband (and even a free PC, if you need it) is included in the deal, too.
I don't smoke or drink and am a vegetarian, but I don't object to these things. Antisocial hours& loud music not a problem, so long as it's decent music. ;¬) There is a cat but she's an exceptionally sweet little thing.
If you know anyone that's looking, please spread the word around... Loads of contact details in my userinfo.
