AIBU to think it shouldn't be so expensive to move into a council house?!

NC.
So we've finally been allocated a house! Viewing is really soon. They want first 2 weeks rent 6 days after the viewing, then they say they can give us the keys 2 days after that.
Few hiccups:
We'd be paying rent on 2 houses. Need to give landlord 1 months notice from the day we pay rent, which is the 1st of the month. We barely have anything left over as it is after bills. Let alone magically coming up with another £250+.
They don't provide flooring.... AIBU to think this is a hazard with a 3 Y/O?? Splinters and nails and rough floorboards Shock
No white goods whatsoever... So we'd be without an oven and a washing machine. Also microwave ect but that's not vital.
No bath- LO will just have to get over her hatred of showers, this one isn't really a major issue.

Anyone got any magical ideas?
Or been in a similar situation?

Morning,

Sorry to elbow into your thread, OP! We hope that you can get things sorted and that you'll be very happy in your new home Flowers

We just wanted to remind that not everyone on the internet is who they say they are - and remind folk not to give more to another poster (either emotionally or financially) than they could afford to give if something went wrong.

If anyone has any concerns at all - feel free to drop us a line.

Thanks, all.
