Stinking pit of hell.....

Yes, anyone who has ever looked at rental properties will immediately understand where I'm coming from with this one.

I went to see a flat today. It was in a nice area and it wasn't exactly cheap. So I had a level of expectation, you see?? Well I can tell you that what I saw shocked me to the core - OK, I exaggerate a touch, but really....
- the carpet was lifting at the corners and looked like a disturbing number of critters were lurking beneath the surface.
- the bathroom was the kind of thing that would shock even the dirtiest of students.
- the kitchen had a broken window - I stopped looking around that sq metre after noticing that
- the bedroom would make a toilet cubicle look spacious.

On the plus side it didn't actually smell. But it must have been fumigated or something.

Result: Miserable depression. I am going to be homeless and sad for the rest of my life. OK I exaggerate again.....

Waaaah booooooooooo!
