I found a place to live, for the next few months!!! OK, a one year tenancy would be better but this is with some pretty nice people, in a nice area, in a spacious apartment. It's an ex-council flat, which I assume was bought under the "Right to Buy" scheme. It's right on the very edge of the wave of gentrification, in one direction there is a railway line and then a load of under-construction luxury flats and in the other direction it's all council housing. I'd like to be able to vote in the London mayoral election in a month, but I don't think I'll be able to move in and register to vote in time. I really hope Sadiq Khan wins.
