Greg 45 had been married for nearly 20 yrs yet he finds himself looking over the notice board for accommodation as after much soul searching decided life’s too short to stay in a loveless marriage .
Too expensive , too far from the kidz, too small is all he can see, untill he hears a voice behind him “ sorry mate” as an arm reaches over his shoulder , Greg moves back and let’s Paul ( which it becomes clear is his name ) place his piece off paper on the already overflowing notice board and walks away
Greg’s eyes are instantly drawn to the latest arrival ,” small attic loft available long term letting “ it seemed perfect not too far from his OLD home,, rent seems very affordable,
So knowing it’s frowned upon Greg removes the ad and places it in his back pocket , making mental note to drive that way back to his hotel room before ringing Paul

So even though the adress is not fully down the name off the road is , its not one Greg is familar with but he has an idea where it is , so after picking up two bottles wine he heads in that direction .
Pulling in off the main road onto a smaller road , lined with old tress , he sees 4 small bungalows on each side , but only one seems to have an atic conversion that he can see as he spots a velux window.
Pulling into the curb just as a car pulls into the driveway ,the drivers door opens , it must be the wife Greg assumes as Carol(who he knows now ) walks to the boot of the car ,opens in bending over to remove her tesco shopping bags (wearing them obilgatory leggings , her figure does suggest that she minds herself .
Not wanting to hang around too long incase a nosey neighbour reports him. Greg drives back to his hotel room .
After opening his first bottle red he pulls out his phone noticing the background pic is his now ex wife fuk sake move on man he scorns himself .
he dialls the number provided ,A female voice ans (which he persumes is tesco shopper ) "hi (he nervously stutters) im enquiring about the attic loft for rent " "ohh you need my hubby (PAULLLL he hears her call down the line) . After some chit chat with Greg explaining his situation sying he cannot provide ref as he has never rented before Paul reassures him and tells him pop around giving him full adresss "will tomorrow say 2 pm ish work "says Greg , "works for me " Paul replies,
ending the call Greg raises his glass and toasts his emptysingle hotel room "to new beginnings " |

so 2 pm arrives Greg pulls up outside walks up to door to rung doorbell but cant see one so knocks on the big brass knocker instead , Paul answers after few mins "hiya mate you must be Greg ?" to which Greg nods in agreement ,"come in come in he is ushered in to the hallway, where Paul explains the situation about rent deposit etc .
Greg is giving a quick tour downstairs showing the kitchen area n a sep press for his goods ,then led up stairs , the Attic conversion is en suite Paul tells him , electric shower included (wow Greg thinks this is too good to be true there must be a catch as the rent is so cheap)
"I will take it"Greg suddendly blurts out, Paul says he will need to discuss it with herself and let him know this evening
