The old woman however gives me an evil stare every time she sees me in the corridor outside of the apartment. You would think she would let up after nearly two years of it.

I know I can be a bit noisy sometimes and have the very occasional party at home, but nothing too crazy. One time my girlfriend stayed in my apartment and I went to work. She must have known I was out, so she came and complained to my girlfriend how noisy I was! It was pretty funny how she wouldn’t complain to me. Her way of revenge it seems, it to get up early on the weekend and start cleaning her apartment – vacuuming, banging cupboards and doors.

It is government housing, so their rent hasn’t gone up for years and I am paying more than double than what they pay.
