Where's the curtains?

I wonder if people would be able to claim that rooms under 6.5sq.m are not bedrooms for the purpose of bedroom tax calculations?

Curtains are old school. They are Electro-photo sensitive windows

They're probably in the laundry after FLC wiped a certain part of his anatomy on them

Presumably for the purposes of state benefits they will be deemed to be the correct size based on a hypothetical building that the claimant could be living in if they owned their own property

If you put a sofa in it rather than bed, then I reckon it will be ok...

Let's solve the housing crisis by kicking people out and making them even more desperate!

Anyone kicked out of the UK ought to be grateful.

Dear AtW,

I just converted my outhouse into a bedroom for my maid. I have attached the photo after conversion.

I don't charge her for staying in it. Will I be alright?

Thanks,
FLC

If I couldn't see those trees outside I would have sworn this room was on its side, with the bed and lampstand sticking up from the floor

Special effects for the maid innit? She gives me extras in return for that sort of treatment
