My friend is looking for a one or two bed flat to rent in forest hill/catford/ed.

The problem is most of the rent is paid by DSS and it seems no one is now taking it! She has a full deposit, guarantor and good references but it seems impossible to find a landlord who accepts benefits ( why I'm not sure as it pretty much guarantees the rent!).

She is a good tenant, a single mum with a part time job and an eight year old daughter who goes to school in forest hill so would need to be able to get there easily. Her budget is around ?1200 a month. Her support network is in the area and has lived in her previous house in FH for the last seven years with no arrears. Her current landlord wants to put the rent up by over ?400 a month so she has been served notice.

Any private landlord looking for a good long term tennant please get in touch!

  I've been using Homecert for all my electrical work at my flat in London for several years. They have done small jobs like this one ( fitting a new security light to the patio) and big ones like fitting a new consumer unity, and also tricky ones like investigating and sorting out a problematic power circuit. They are extremely reliable and efficient and the work is always of a very high quality. Communications with the office are, in addition, excellent. Their work is economically reasonable and properly costed. I cannot see myself bothering with any other London electricians as long as Homecert exists

  There were big queues at the gelateria this weekend and then one guy jumped in front of me in the queue! Anyway, just realised the bacio flavour is the same as Baci chocolates!
