Friend in flat hunt panic

OK, this is a bit uncoventional, but I have a friend who is in a serious panic about having to move house before the weekend. A month of searching hasn't paid off yet. She's vegan, non-smoking, able to meet a reasonable rent and needs somewhere quiet preferably in Leith/North Embra. She's tried all the usual routes but y'know how it is. PM me if you can help and I shall send wuffles in your direction.
Normal shouty service will now resume.

Your friend sounds lovely - if only we needed a flatmate! I'll ask about at work.

Relax Cube m'borl, the Barbelith Housing Service is a long running institution.

Poor thing, I've been there. Just like in Spaced-

"I get up and I buy the paper, and I circle them all, and I phone them only to discover they've been taken by a bunch of fucking psychic house hunters"

I'll ask around and see if I know anyone needing a flatmate right now.

Yes, the Spaced conversation has been thrown back and forth a few times. Thanks for your concern.

Quick one: I'm hijacking this thread because the title applies. A friend of mine is renting a lovely two bedroom flat in Kilburn/West Hampstead and she's desperate for a flat mate before she has to pay far more rent than she can afford. Anyone interested? Send me a private message and I'll get you in touch with her..

Resurrecting this because my poor friend has just had to move out of the house she loves and has in the same week split up with her boyfriend - so has nowhere to stay in London except friends' floors.

She is lovely, quiet, clean and tidy, smokes but not at home, can afford up to £500/month I think, and would prefer North London but will take pretty much anything at this stage.

Any length of let considered - if you're going off round the world for two months and want to rent out your room I will personally stand guarantor for her that she will not steal, break or hurt any of your possessions, and will probably clean the bathroom to a sparkling shine while you're away (said she was clean ...)

Please PM me if you've got or know of anything suitable.

Mucho sympathy for all these orphaned flat-owners.
