I have a nice if small flat
It's in a converted Victorian bank, so nice high ceilings, and while most if it is quite compact the living room is immense and that's where I spend most of my time, so that's nice.

I live alone barring occasional visitors, and I quite like this as I do not tend to play well with others, or not before I've had my coffee.

While I might one day share with that Certain Special Someone, I can't see myself sharing with anyone else, I have the radio for company or I can always call friends and I sleep with a batonette to ward off anny ghosts/monsters/rioters.

I approve of the era of building you have chosen to live in.

Yes, it is good, and makes the otherwise poky bits bearable.
Sadly it is in New Cross, armpit of south London. Still, at least it's not Lewisham.

Yes, but it's in Lewisham, the only geographical area other than the gaza strip I can look down on.

I live in Ladywell.
But say Lewisham to "keep it real". Haha!

I know, it's Lewisham.

What ever works for you dude.
Technically I live in New Cross Gate, but not quite Telegraph Hill, but a boy can dream.

How's the rebuilding going? Have they reopened the Aldi yet?

How can a small piece of carrot ward off ghosts?

They're terribly scared of vegetables.

You own swords?
Suprising, you don't seem the type.

I'm going to assume that this is meant to be read as heavy sarcasm.
However to take the question seriously, yes I do, although the 1907 pattern Bayonet is not one of them, being as it is only about 18-24 inches long.

That assumption is safe for all my posts.
Looks like a sword to me.

Better to be safe then sorry Chompy.
In some regiments bayonets are called swords anyway.

This is because one of us has an incorrect definition of the word sword.
Rifle Bayonets are traditionally referred to as 'swords' and due to length this would be classed as a 'sword bayonet' anyway, but I tend to classify it as a bayonet rather than a sword as it was intended to be attached to the end of a rifle, rather than as a separate weapon in it's self.
/nitpicking.
