For June - 1 - Unfurnished bedroom in house with three roommates on north Shelbourne near Arbordale. Cable and internet access in your bedroom. w/d. Share use of kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. Five min. drive/ten min. bus-ride to UVIC. Bus stop is two houses away. Cool tiered garden - terraced by rock walls - leads up to the front entrance. House is surrounded by trees and set far back from the road. Very quiet - you'll forget smetimes you're on Shelbourne. Ten minute walk to Mt. Doug and beach access. NS/NP in a house of clean freaks. International students welcome. ¼ house bills. N-O P-E-T-S. Doug 589-7847

also -

I play in a band that practices in a room directly underneath the bedroom that is available. These practices are only ONCE a week, on Fridays, usually from 8:30 to 11:00 pm. We almost never go past 11. We’re barely hearable outside the house, but in your (putative) bedroom, you'll hear us from below. It’ll be only two and a half hours of frequency turbulence out of your week. Sorry – rehearsal space is out of bounds.

We are also clean freaks - I'm talking NO dirty dishes laying around WHATSOEVER, not ONE HAIR in the bathroom sink, no clutter ANYWHERE - that kinda thing. Scents are also unwelcome, unless if it’s the MILDEST perfume/cologne in the world. No incense – that’s for shit sure.

We have an oil bill twice each winter – once in late September, and again in mid-January. It’ll cost AT LEAST $1,200 to fill the tank each time, so, with two tank fillings, and four roommates, you’re looking at an additional $600 MINIMUM per year for oil. (that’s IF you’re here from Sept. – Apr.) (or $50/month that I can hold onto - or you can responsibly put aside - until bill time)

We’re light pot smokers.

And like I was saying - no pets.

I've been to this house many time and it kicks ass. You'll never find cooler roommates to chill with and the band that jams there is Peruke so this place is off the hook. BTW Curmudgeon we should find some time to get together for a Stella in the near future. Cheers \m/ - Wed, 14 May 2008 10:05am

DDX: definitely, dude, been fuckin ages. The brown belt is still on the mantlepiece.
Mike: small amounts of sporadic pot smoke, especially smoked through the ever-lovin vapourizer, dissipate in no time in the (pretty fair-sized) livingroom. And like I stated in the post, if it's mild, it's ok. One ex had this perfume that was beyond the coolest - it was yowza, but at least she didn't drown herself in it.
turbo lover: just as long as you don't have people hanging out, snorting Pam. - Wed, 14 May 2008 8:56pm

rent - $360
shaw (internet/cable) - 32
hydro - 30 (approx.)
water - 10

$432/mo + oil (that is - if you're here between Sept. - Apr., which is another $50/mo, or two payments of $300, in Sept. and then again in Jan.)

plus a COMPREHENSIVE understanding of the aforementioned caveats. - Fri, 16 May 2008 7:15am
