I think this may qualify as being bedwetterish but wtf.
I've always resisted the temptation to move into lodgings despite the savings that can be made over staying in a hotel / B&B;
This time, I've taken the plunge as everywhere around here is really expensive & I've wound up in exactly the scenario I've always dreaded.
Quite a young couple, bloke is ok, she seemed ok at first though I should have smelled a rat when she kept calling me darling and pawing me as she spoke to me. In marketing, you see. The 8 cats should also have been a giveaway.
Anyway, now I'm in, the niceties have finished & she seems to enjoy laying down the law at every opportunity. Normally trivial stuff like putting the wrong stuff in the rubbish bin etc. I'm also forbidden from eating anywhere other than in the kitchen & every time I go in there they seem to be having a blazing row. Not much fun tip toeing around on eggshells after a stressful day at the office.
Anyway, the final straw came tonight when I tried to strike up a conversation over my attempt at trying a bit of healthy eating. She looked at my packet of raspberries and launched into a diatribe about "food miles". Unfortunately I'm on 2 weeks notice & I've just given it to her - I'm expecting 2 weeks of hell.
Days Inn at Fleet Services on the M3 is going to seem like paradise after this.
