I think the estate agents are coming to do the photos on Friday as they don't want to manage themselves, but they wouldn't reject you(I can tell them not to anyway), so once it's all finalised with them I'll drop you the details of who to contact.
Nice one, thanks pal.

Also if your Corvette is red I definitely saw you down by the stray the other week. Can't be too many Corvettes!
That'll be me, first proper outing of the year smile, parked up near Betty's?
Probably the second, given the nature of this thread! laugh

It was actually at night, think I was in my E36. I'd just done the driveshaft in so was limping it home.

Estate Agent has gone quiet on my gay question btw.
"done the driveshaft"?

Good euphemism. You'll do fine with those landlords.

From the thread title I wondered if the landlord had suggested alternative methods of payment for the rent...

Ah yes, night time through town is one of my favourite times in the Corvette, really lets that Borla system sing biggrin

I may be putting 2+2 together and getting 5 here, but your flat mate isn't a chap named Charles perhaps?
Haha, typical Harrogate ponce showing off hehe get it out in the hills man!

Yeah that's true and also quite worrying that you knew that! Explain yourself

Oh I can assure you I did, took it out over the moors for a few hours the other day, however, I stupidly followed a friend who took me down a narrow track that I would call 'tricky' in a defender biggrin

I used to work with Charles up until he left a couple of months ago(although I worked in a different office) and he mentioned you a couple of times, what's he doing now?

ETA: I have photographic proof that it left town biggrin

Looking good man! GTR, 235i, Corvette... not baaaad.

Small world up here isn't it, everyone knows everyone! He's working over the road from me now on Hornbeam.

Back on topic, I received a reply last night to my question in which I thought I had done a good job at "coming out the estate agent's closet".

My email:

Me said:
Hi XXX,

Does that exclude gay couples? Are gay couples classed as sharers?

Sorry to get political.

Thanks,
Dan
Read between the lines ey... this was their response.

Estate Agents said:
Hi,

No, the difference with sharers is that it may be 2 of you to start with but then if you both get partners and they want to move in it then becomes 4 and can lead to more wear & tear in the property for this reason landlords prefer to keep it as a couple sometimes.

Kind Regards

If that's the problem why don't they just put a clause in the contract saying partners can't move in?

More risk of a regular couple moving in and 9 months later having a baby or twins!!

I guess common sense doesn't really apply here, especially as this is in Harrogate where the average age is 1970.

Or marry them, it would seem.

Shallow end of the gene pool.

Oh heavens no, by venturing into the wilderness of Yorkshire and it's surrounding areas you could risk getting married to a female of plebeian descent, I shudder at the thought!!
