I would ask first but I'm a wimp who wouldn't want to lose her deposit! you could just get a shade and save all the diy stuff for when you buy somewhere.

I can't believe anyone wouldn't let you. It is pretty horrible. :rotfl:

you should have seen one of the fittings in my first flat - it was a rise and fall thing and a sort of ceramic basket effect but bloke we bought off loved it! everyone's tastes are different though or it'd be a bland old world!:D

1) Definately. That's the one thing I did check! Fantastic, can't have your number one purchase not getting pride of place!

2) Sadly not but I've sounded out all the local takeaways. Make sure they are on speed dial in case of emergencies

3) I'm waiting for you to get back to me on that one! Oh, thought you had forgotten about that depends how you like a bikini filled out :rotfl:

Glad you noticed more on the second viewing and took mum. They always spot the things you dont.

Fingers crossed you get it if it is the one you want.

What else are you thinking of buying now?

beccaz dont encourage him (not that he eed encouragement lol!!)...I would ak if you can change the lamp fittings (rather than putting in strip light - i it worth 500 + deposit?!!) and see what that like! & week is age but you could always use the time to try & save (rather than spend lol) and then enjoy when you move in the glorious feeling of less debt and also use the time to home your cooking skills..very os unlike takeaway which isnt! I cant talk though as have bought sandwiches almost daily for lunch due to bad organiation lol!! Please please do make sure there isnt a decent 1 bed one that you liks cos that 100/150 a month is alot when you add on the extra banding for council tax....bet if you add the two it would be about 2000 all in....I know its hard not to get everything (see siggy for consistent failures - even as a dfw!) but I can hnestly say from experience that I have got much more from reasonable "need" things rather than want things...plus a lower siggy to boot...Sorry dont want to be a naggy so and so just know it hard to get out than it is to get into these things...

Seriously, it looks crap. I might just change it even if they say no. :undecided

Don't ask. It's easier to apologise than to gain permission.
