I have got myself a flat in Abingdon, which i shall be moving into on the 1st of August.

This means that i shall become a regular home boy here from then onwards, due to having some kind of ntl broadband/tv combo deal, which is being organised by my soon to be flatmate. Thats not to say that he is my mate, and will soon be flattened. Just that i will be living in the same flat as him. Anyways,  :D i am this happy at the thought of having a lad-pad and being on the forum all the time. Am i sad? Don't answer.....

Anyway, anyone ever lived in a shared flat before? Anyone got any pointers? Also, will i have to change my name on here, now that i will no longer be a village/country bumpkin?

Ive shared with girls which was alright as it goes.

I share with my brother now which is also alright.I think if your laid back all will be ok.

I'm not allowed to sit or stand then? :roll: Sharing with my best mate, so should be a good laugh. Just want to avoid unnecessary arguments......

I just signed up to that NTL deal with the Broadband /Digital Tv/Phone for 30 quid a month.I was worried about their customer service when I signed up but thought Id give it a whirl.

Anyway they have forgot to send my broadband activation password and after spending hours onthe phone ive still not managed to sort it out.NTL are cunts FACT!!

May reconsider ntl now. Money is a slight issue though, which is swaying me towards accepting a cheap deal, while accepting shite customer service.

What would y'all say is the must-have item for any aspiring lad-pad? (aside from an abundance of rubbers, booze, porn etc)

A Plasma TV
A Gnome
A Bucket
A Cleaner

1. Check. Going shopping for a mahousive one next week, spending money of upto £1200 :shock:
2. We have pretty communal gardens, but as we're on the top floor, we have a balcony, which would be a great place for a little gnome-mascot. One sporting a Town shirt would be a visual treat
3. For when the toilet/sink/window is occupied :soapy tit wank:
4. Check. I have a mother

Nice, get one of those little ps2 while your at it and a crate of Stella.You'll also need a good music system.

Cool, thanks YR, thats well worth a read :mrgreen:

Heart shaped waterbed and glitter ball it is then. :)

8) I always wondered who was under the costume :soapy tit wank:  :-))(

My reasons for wanting a pad are simple:

1. To fuck more women
2. To fully enjoy my recently employed single status
3. To fuck more women

Sounds like its working for Dazzza, and if it works for him, it can work for moi 8)

Well I hope it works out for you..

You could however end up living in a smelly,filthy flat with you ex best mate.

We're both fairly clean-living guys, easy going, so i can't envisage those kinds of problemos, only stumbling block could be financial. But i'm feeling flush at the moment, so its all good.

You msound bitter YR, bad experience with this kinda thing?

Not at all,Ive always shared and never had any worries.Its nice to have someone around (its also nice to have the house to yourself at times though)

What sort of rent will you be paying?

£675pcm, so £337.50 a month 8) Thats bloody good for round here

How much is the Council Tax?

Don't know yet, meeting the landlord sometime this week. Had to pay £240 out to the estate agents just to make an application on the place :evil:

Yes I used to rent through a letting agents,they charge loads to check your credit and what not.Fucking cunts!

I could rant on for ages about goddamn estate/letting agents, but i did hand over the money to a highly attractive brunette, which softened the blow somewhat. Still  :twisted:

A major Brucie bonus of this pad, is that its just behind Waitrose. Perfect if i fancy picking up a crate or two during the Ashes :P

8)

Im going to kill some gangsters now.

bye 8)

ah crap the servers down :x

Indeed. Its also very close to my gym, a nice park, a few decent pubs and eateries, bus stops, taxi ranks. Its just a little bit too good methinks :D

Bit early/late for you Johno? Whats the story(morning glory)?

I got the NTL working today and the customer services were fine,so maybe they are just crap at the weekend..

Excellent (in a Mr Burns stylie). NTL World, here i come :D

Whats the TV package like YR? Has i got all the decent channels? (ie sky sports, sky one, red hot dutch :P )

is this your last night?

its mine \ :D / (till Saturday :( )

Tomorrow I shall mostly be sleeping and drinking.

they're playing Fun Boy 3 on the radio  8)

Our Lips are Sealed    ......... 'tune!'

Is it that 30 quid thing your having?

The Tv package is wank

no sky sports only sky sports news.I dont mind really cos its an excuse to go to the pub to watch football,the only thing I will miss is Soccer Am but I only get to see that about 8 times a season because of work anyway.

To be honest I think you'd probably get the same channels on freeview.

Lucky you, i've got 1 more after tonight :cry:

That sounds quite shit, although i don't know what i was expecting for £10pm.

Like most apartment blocks, you're not allowed to put up dishes, so i'm at a loss, i'm desperate to become an armchair fan (except when it comes to the Town).

Any bright ideas about how to get around this predicament?

I can get a dodgey box for 200 quid that will give you everything.Im saving up for one myself 8)

Dodgey, as in, illegal, or digi, as in, legal and above board? Cable me thinks. Who's that with?

Its a chipped NTL box,its illegal in as much as your defrauding NTL but who cares about that?

I'll let you know how I get on when I get it,Ive heard they work fine with no come backs and thats good enough for me.

Cheers me dears, that sounds good, if a little bit like an arrestable offence. But hey, if there's no come backs, bring it on :D

When are you getting it btw?

Not sure ,proabaly not that soon im skint.

Where can you pur-chase them from? Or is it a friend of a friend jobbie? :wink:

Thats it, a bloke I know  :wink:

:wink:  :wink:  :nod:  :nod:

Im off bye bye  :run:  :king:

ttfn

Evening Yeovil, how goes it?

Not good,I cant sleep.Ive slept all day and now Im not tired.Im going to ruin tomorrow at this rate.On the positive side Im slowly getting pissed.

That is always happening to me when i come off of night shift, end up sleeping all day and not wanting to sleep at night. Alcohol is good though, keep drinking until your body gives up :beers: Anything planned for tomorrow/today actually?

:D Not really ,meeting a mate for a couple of pints thats about it.

Cool, i shall be meeting a female friend of mine this evening down the boozer. Have had a thing about her for years and i think the feelings mutual, so i may well take the plunge now that i'm single.....and start shagging her :P
