not quite happy, but a sense of relief.
I found out last night that the pub will exchange either the first or the second week in October.

So it's going to be cutting it fine, but I will have the money to move before I have to leave.
The downside is my slim hope of being able to stay in the pub has been dashed - the man buying it wants to gut the whole upstairs and create en-suite rooms for guests. He'll therefore need all the space he can get and won't be interested in a tenant.

Still, as I say it was a long shot.

Today I plan to update my profile on Find A Flamate or whatever it's called. I'll start actively contacting people next week (I've found that people only advertise rooms available immediately). And create a notice for the pub, asking if anyone has a room to let. It might encourage someone who wasn't thinking about it to offer me a spare room to make some money. They would be local, know me by sight and after all it wouldn't have to be a long term thing.
