Lawrence Court vintage.

So the hassle and cost of hunting for a new house has begun. There's so much to do, and so little money, and we are constantly chasing up things that need fixing, replacing or cleaning. Maire, Kayla and I have never had much luck with our fourth housemate. The three of us have lived in this humble abode without hassle for over 18 months, but we rotate fourth housemates like they're going out of fashion. At the moment we're struggling massively because one of the girls refuses to pay us for a set of keys she lost (meaning we have to replace the locks) and the landlord's lawnmower, which she ruined by putting in straight petrol instead of 2 stroke.



This photo is the "Lawrence Court Originals". It was one of the first nights we were all together in the house. Laura, the blonde, was the "fourth housemate", she left after breaking up with her boyfriend (one of our best friends), demanding a whippet dog and cracking the shits when we said no, and generally not getting along with us. Hopefully she's happier in her new house... (Not that we'd know as she deleted us all from facebook)

But despite such ridiculousness, we are pretty happy that the three of us have managed to stick together through the trials and tribulations of Lawrence Court. It is going to be too weird not living together anymore :(

  1. Goodluck on the house hunting! When I eventually can afford to move out not a chanace could I do it with anyone. Couldn't be bothered with the drama. At least 3 of you seemed to do alright with it.

  2. Straight petrol in a 2-stroke lawnmower. Rookie error.
