Do you think you could give me a hand finding somewhere to live? I deadly would like to live close to where I am going to be working, or in the (downtown district). If possible I would like to be near some shops, like a supermarket and a DVD (rental) place. As I really love sports it would be great to be near a park too. I'm not too worried about the place itself. (Obviously) I will be looking for a flat, rather than a house, as it is just going to be me and I won’t be able to afford too much. So, a place with one bedroom is fine, but I would like to have a private bathroom, a kitchen and some kind of living room. It doesn't matter if the kitchen is small, but it would nice to have one. I would prefer to live somewhere new, so anything in a modern (apartment block) would be great. Thanks for your help
