I live in a HA house and the estate also has 1 and 2 bed flats. When me and xp plsit he tried to get on the list for a flat but was told that the list was closed.
Anyway last week everyone on the estate had a letter from the HA asking if anyone had any friends or relatives looking for 1 bed flats in the 2 blocks on this estate. TBH I didn't even give xp a thought and binned my letter, but his neice who already has a 1 bed flat, rang and told him.
So anyway, he has applied, and seeing as he was a tennant of theirs for roughly 5 years and was a good tennant at that, it is likely he will get one. I think they are advertising the empty flats so that they can fill them with people they'd prefer rather than people reffered to them by places like probation etc.
Anyway, not entirly sure how I feel about it. The kids would be pleased if he got one, and at least he'd then be alot more involved in their lives, hopefully then giving me a bit more freedom. Not so keen on him being on my doorstep but can't have it all ways I suppose.
