Having left the embrace of VSO I "shifted" into my flat at the weekend. And as the estate agents might or might not say...
The flat offers ample accommodation including a lounge, kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms for each of two tenants. This stunning property includes a lady who cleans (general), a lad who cleans (toilet), a whistle-blowing security guard (active throughout night) and a karaoke singing mother-of-landlord (downstairs).
The scope for development makes this an attractive proposition and particular attention should be brought to the following features:-
- intermittent running water (or by turn, ironically, flood water),
- running hot water in the toilet (but not the shower),
- no working air conditioning in one bedroom (mine),
- an odd cockroach,
- a fridge which freezes all contents (use of frozen aubergine as missile may provide solution to number 4., see above).
Oh how we laugh! No, really, we do laugh. There's nothing that can't be fixed and after all it's all part of what we came for. We think that by the time we've gone through the list we'll have the ultimate des-res and understand just a little bit more about India.
