Shortly after the first lockdown, a young man moved into Flora and Phoebe’s* London home. He turned out to be the flatmate from hell. Their original flatmate Dan* had moved back in with his mum, so decided to sublet his bedroom without telling them. The new tenant was a friend of his, and it wasn’t long before things turned hairy.
“He was really aggressive and misogynistic, and he just had the worst attitude,” Flora tells me. “He would sit in the lounge smoking weed all day. Then I found out he was selling weed from the house. He was also dogging in forests during the height of the pandemic, and bringing weird people to our house that he’d met at the skatepark.”
