Hello!

I'm looking to join an existing houseshare with at least two others. I'm looking for it to be a nice, social, mixed houseshare north of the river. My favourite areas are Angel, Islington in general and Hoxton/Shoreditch. I'd consider other similar areas but ONLY centralish areas in zones 1-2. I'd consider as far north as Finsbury Park.

I am 25 years old, male, British, and an IT consultant whose base is near Liverpool Street. I'm an easy going, good humoured, sociable and tidy...the norm in that respect really. My interests are general socialising, travelling, some sports (e.g. badminton, tennis, played socially), clubbing, pubbing, salsa dancing, meeting new, random people, computer stuff, films and music in general, good food and drink and trying new things, e.g. wine tasting and zorbing.

I want to meet people who'd be sociable, up for going out to bars etc., and don't spend all evening every evening locked up in their rooms!

Get in touch if you're interested and we can have a chat and maybe meet for a drink or something. Ideally, I want to move in within the next few weeks, but am happy to wait for the right people and the right place. It's likely your call will go to voicemail as it's awkward to answer the phone at work, but I'll ring you back.

Thanks for reading!

Marc, 07919 888376

P.S. I can move in instantly

Hello!

I saw your ad on Gumtree and it seems as though you're pretty decent people so I'd like to find out more! I'm up for a friendly, sociable houseshare, not one where people stay locked up in their rooms all evening and weekend.

I am 25 years old, male, British, and an IT consultant whose base is near Liverpool Street. I'm an easy going, good humoured, sociable and tidy...the norm in that respect really.

My interests are general socialising, travelling, some sports (e.g. badminton, tennis, played socially), clubbing, pubbing, salsa dancing, meeting new, random people, computer stuff, films and music in general, good food and drink and trying new things, e.g. wine tasting and zorbing.

I want to meet people who'd be sociable, up for going out to bars etc., and don't spend all evening every evening locked up in their rooms!

Just to let you know, in a month or two, I will have to work in Chester from Monday morning to Thursday evening, but will be around Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights hopefully in the house in London. These are the most important nights in my opinion anyway :) Just really letting you know in case you think this poses a problem.

Get in touch if you're interested and we can have a chat and maybe meet for a drink or something. Ideally, I want to move in within the next few weeks, but am happy to wait for the right people and the right place. It's likely your call will go to voicemail as it's awkward to answer the phone at work, but I'll ring you back.

This response is embarassingly huge. Congratulations if you made it down to here!

Thanks,
