For all the sparkly vampires out there




PROSPECTIVE TENANT: I don't know... the windows seem a bit small.

OWNER: No, no, they're nice and big. Airy! The apartment is positively airy.

PROSPECTIVE TENANT: But the windows! Look at them! They're about six inches tall.

OWNER: Clearly you are mistaken. Look at the curtains! Nobody would put such long curtains on six-inch-tall windows, would they?

PROSPECTIVE TENANT: I see your point. I'll sign the lease now, please.

Arr, matey! Your cabin be mostly below the water line, ya scurvy dog!

But underground houses are all the rage, I guess.

Is that a front loading washer to the right of the sink?

nothing like living underground to keep the heating/cooling bills down right?

It's in London. The sun never shines there anyway, right? So what does it matter?

The great thing about London is, I can't even afford to live in this hell hole. 'Have you got anything worse I might be interested in?'

Marytoo, it is likely a combined clothes washer/dryer, in fact, which commonly turn up in British kitchens.

can I have something with smaller windows, b/c I can't afford 300 US dollars per WEEK for that thing!

I am sure Alice would not be amused at the decor!!

So, that's £180pw to live in a three room basement apartment with a total of four windows which are the equivalent of one whole normal window?

Yep. That's why I left London.

Yep, too poor for any London standards but kudos for the Twilight reference :)
