Philippa knew that in her search for a furnished, two-roomed flat in central London at a

reasonable rent, she was privileged; appearance, age, voice and colour – although no one was

unwise as to hint at race – all were in her favour.

She read the truth of her advantage in the appraising eyes and deference

of receptionists and interviewers in the dozen or so flat agencies at

which she called. It was an added attraction to them that the lease required

was short – 'only three months before I go up to Cambridge' – and that she didn't

want a joint let. The words, 'just for the two of us, my mother and me, we

want to spend some months together in London before I go up to college

and she goes abroad', spoken in her confident, educated voice were, as she

well knew, a reassuring guarantee of filial duty and respectability.

Any of the agents would gladly have let to her if they had had anything

suitable to offer. But short-term furnished leases in inner London were

exorbitantly priced for the foreign market, and her tentative suggestion

of forty to fifty pounds a week was met with incredulous smiles, shakes

of the head, and murmurs of the evil effect of the rent restriction acts. She

was made to feel guilty of some deception; she had no right to walk in

looking so prosperous and admit to such poverty. Losing interest, the

agencies took her name and address and promised nothing.

She followed the same daily routine during the first week of her search.

She left 68 Caldecote Terrace after breakfast and spent the morning

trudging round the agencies. As soon as the lunchtime editions of the

evening paper were available, she bought them and marked the

possibilities. The next half-hour was spent in a telephone kiosk where,

provided with a supply of coins, she began the frustrating task of trying to

contact the advertisers on numbers most of which were either

perpetually engaged or unobtainable.

Then came the viewing; flats whose grimy windows overlooked deep wells

which no sunlight could ever penetrate; shared lavatories and

bathrooms remote from the flat itself and in a state to encourage permanent

constipation; furnished flats where the furniture consisted of the landlord's broken rejects,

wardrobes whose doors swung perpetually open, cookers with chipped enamel and food-

encrusted ovens, tables with scorched tops and uneven legs, and filthy lumpy beds; landlords

whose advertisement for a female tenant had less to do with the probable greater cleanliness

of the kitchen than with other more elemental needs.
