For anyone else who's sick of the noise of the Eagle Helicopter endlessly circling

Dan from Edgeware

Its no wonder they are so noisy - they are supposed to be at an altitude of 1500m not the 330-500m that they are flying at in every log I have looked at. I don't see why the police should be allowed to flout the rules.

Disclaimer: Credit checks, background information, and rental history verification, shall be undertaken for prospective renters.

Hi all, some, or none at all.
I don't want to waste anybody's time, especially my own.
If you are easily offended, and/or have no sense of humour, please stop reading now...
The following may contain sensitive information, and some content may offend.
Your discretion is recommended.
I will have a small, self-contained sleep-out to rent, becoming available next Sunday 22nd March.
You're still reading aren't you?
The sleep-out is attached to the garage, at the rear of the property, in a safe neighborhood.
I'm searching for the perfect tenant please.
No?
Ok, I'd be looking for a male version of me then, and if you're out there, you'll know what to do now :)...
Failing that, I'm just trying to find someone, preferably a male, that knows right from wrong, and lives their life accordingly...please!
Are you still reading?
Perhaps you're a drama-free, macho, gay guy?? With a full-time job, that takes you away from home the majority of the time lol?
If no favourable result finding any of the self-confessed above, then I'm going to have to extend the gene pool, and be very specific.
I hope there's somebody in the market, that reflects my standard of living, and we can reside in an optimum coexistence.
A kind, thoughtful, mannered, individual, that likes animals, displays initiative, is approachable, and exhibits a common sense strategy to life.
Leading on from the qualities above, I envisage a mature male, that demonstrates good habits, and occupies a clean, tidy, living environment.
Somebody socially adequate, that enjoys their privacy.
A friendly, practical person, who won't mind participating in the upkeep of the property.
Like I suggested, I'm seeking the perfect tenant.
If I haven't completely excluded the entire human race, for those readers that still remain, congratulations, please email me at octscorpio66@outlook.com with a subject heading of RENTAL, and include any documents to support your application.
Thank you.
