To cut a ridiculously long story short, my flatmate Jennifer moved out and I had the task of finding a new mate.
The flat itself was gorgeous - an executive open planned flat with en suite bathrooms and oak floors, so I had no shortage of potential flatmates but I chose a girl that smoked weed, her name was Ashleigh.
Although she was only 17 (I was 20) she worked in a letting agents so I thought she might be mature for her age and have an idea how to look after such a nice flat.

Well.

I used to come home from work and she'd be sitting with about 15 of her 14-17 year old goth mates, taking over the entire living room area, all of them shouting and carrying on (generally behaving like 7 year olds) I asked her a few times nicely, to stop having so many people over every single night but she didnt listen. The neighbours started complaining about the noise and she kept me awake most nights when I had a 9am start the next day

She bought a snake & started keeping dead baby mice in our freezer, right beside all my frozen meat. She would have parties almost every night leaving the flat in a terrible state and she'd not clean out her cupboards for weeks, till I had to do it myself due to the awful stench coming from her mouldy food.

The final straw came one night when I was in bed, dozing off to sleep when one of her daft male friends staggered drunk into my bedroom at about 1am thinking it was the bathroom.
I jumped out my bed FURIOUS and stormed into the living room where she was having another one of her parties with all her school friends and yelled at them all to get out.
I then wrote a letter of complaint to the landlord who came round to the flat, at my request, to inspect the damage she had caused to the flat in the 6 weeks she had been there.

He then issued us BOTH a written warning advising if the flat was not back to the way I had kept it, within 2 weeks, we were both getting chucked out.

The stupid girl ended up getting us both chucked out and I'll never forgive her for that, considering it was such a stunning flat and I lost my 500 pound deposit.

I've had about 10 flatmates in my life and most of them have been a nightmare to live with!
