I do hope you manage to get it all sorted, quite a stressful time moving out, especially when youre worried about stuff like that. I think the weather is set to improve mid week so hopefully the gardens wont be too soggy. You can only do your best anyway. Look at the contract, they, surely, have to be reasonable.

Look divine

I wouldnt try that route if I were you, you need something permanent, right? Private renting is OK for people with high incomes and no kids but when youre on your own its going to be a bit expensive. I had a friend I worked with, having to move every year didnt bother her until her little girl was diagnosed with cancer, she was given a council house. She has never looked back and is so much better off. She said she really hadnt realised how much stress moving all the time had actually caused.

Keep plodding with the council.

Check with the CAB. They will tell you for definite.

No problem.

They might be able to advise on housing as well. Go and see them and tell them your story, you could be entitled to more than you think.

That sounds awful, is it just on a first come first served basis, can you not get a definite appointment?
