Horrible Airbnb experience - Part 3

In part 2, our home is wrecked and smelly. B. cleared as much as he could and hid in his bedroom. We went to sleep. It is now time to wake up. 

We both woke up slightly upset but truthfully, sad for him.
I went out to grab some breakfast for M and me before putting out head down to clear up our home.
On my way back, the neighbour came out of the house.

Neighbour: ''I was worried. Where were you? Who was this man in your house? 
All the window were opened. There were never any lights inside the house at night. He left his clothes all over the garden for days. He came out of the house at night, then came back in like a ghost. He was very weird. I was ready to call the police to be honest. Is it a friend of yours?''
I : ''So, he was alone in the house all this time''
Neighbour: ''Yes, he was. No one else was in the house.''

I leave the neighbour with her questions. I have my answer. No one apart from B. was in the home. He did not have any party. All the drinks were his.

M. and I decided to leave him sober up. We took off all the cover of the sofa, washed them. We ook the carpet out of the house. It was covered with chicken wigs. We cleared up all the plates and clean thoroughly the kitchen. We could not do much with the stank. it was impregnated in the fabric of the house. It will leave eventually.

Around 4-5pm, we decided to knock on his door to see if he was better.

M: ''Hey B. Can I come in''
B: ''Yeah''
M: ''Are you OK? Mate''
B: ''Yeah''

He spoke to him. I do not know what they discussed. I could not go in the room. I was scared.

M. came out shocked. He went outside to the bin, open it and started to take the bin out.

He said: ''He is still drunk, I need to know what happened''.

He went outside and opened the bin

The New Mobile Phone Dilemma PART 2

This Saturday at the Restart Party, we haven't managed to repair my poor mobile phone ( PART 1) . Luckily, one of the members of the Hackspace have a spare one that is happy to lend me until I am able to repair my own. I accept gratefully. I get home and get myself two spares part to replace the screen on my mobile phone. They arrived at home. I put them in a drawer. They stay there. The current mobile phone that was lent to me is perfectly convenient for the time being. I forget to bring the replacement screen at the next restart party and I come to learn that the person who lent me the mobile phone has gone and will never come back to Leicester and I will not find a way to give it back to him. I accept fate. Months pass by and I never manage to repair my old mobile phone. it is somewhere in a drawer with its spare parts. I forget about it. I have a working phone in my hands. Until this Sunday morning after having repaired the bottom drawer of a cupboard, the scre...

Transition Leicester

Transition Leicester is a network of local people that aims to inspire action to make Leicester a thriving, low-carbon and resilient. It was created in 2008. It launch several projects promoting local food, renewable energy Permaculture design and more. I joined Transition Leicester in 2012 after finishing my master degree and moving to Leicester. During my studies, I was introduced to the Transition movement as a model supporting the transition towards a sustainable system of production and consumption and after my master thesis and the clear disenchantment I experienced after my interviews, I wanted to understand the role of grassroots communities in supporting change. When I first joined, I worked on a project about the money system by creating a local group for Positive Money, organising events and discussion as well as workshops in collaboration with Footpaths Leicester (a project which also started under Transition Leicester). My conversation with Footpaths Leicester led to the o...
