emailing all the different agents I emailed when I first looked for a flat
Seeing if they've got anything available now. If anyone knows a good bunch to try, let me know. Just thanking fuck that I extended my stay here and got a Weeks season ticket to London.

funny story
As I was buying the ticket I said it was to start Monday and she said, "Oh, you're only supposed to buy them 24 hours before because they only have an expiry date, not a start date. I'll let you off because you didn't know. Not planning on travelling to London before Monday, are you?"
"No!" I replied firmly. Got home, found out about flat disaster, fucking am planning it now.

It has slightly dented my "everything always works out fine" armour
I was possibly due a run like this having had no drama whatsoever for 30-odd years.

You ought to see what out of pocket expenses the agency are prepared to give you for
this cock up.

If they have a flat on their books, you'd imagine they were have it exclusively, and if not, they should have made it clear to you.

it does seem like their business model favours landlords over tenants
Given all the checks I went through and then he just tells them to do one
