If you want to attract women with your British accent go to the Midwest. I'm an average looker and I was fighting women off there. It doesn't work as well in Boston which is probably for the best in my case because I hate attention lol.

May and June is usually lovely. Boston has terrible nightlife in terms of clubs but some great bars and breweries. Most places close by midnight and 2am is the very latest.

Boston is expensive to stay in but it is a lovely city with great museums, some interesting neighbourhoods and shite public transit. Definitely worth checking out. I'd also recommend getting the Amtrak up to Portland for a couple of nights, for its size it has a better food and drink scene than Boston.

We need an honest manager who is not a yes guy. "This is the funding we receive and this is why it's inadequate to meet our needs." This new guy is near the end of his career so I hope he won't be afraid to rock the boat like this. Call the state out for underfunding the T. Also fix the culture of bad management at the T, no more safety inspections being signed off without an actual inspection and we need an effective oversight board that holds the T to account.

It's irritating but if you refuse to pay I can imagine the broker being annoyed and pointing out to the landlord that your lease is considerably below market (which it probably is at this point). My rent is going up $50 per month so If I was offered the chance for a one off payment of $50 instead I'd bite their hand off.
