First time house share

This would be my be my first ever attempt at moving into shared accommodation. I am also a Quaker, though am in no way an evangelical. I currently work in Central Manchester at HMRC (tax office), and generally spend most of my time around south Manchester and the Peak District. My main hobbies and interest consist of music (varied taste), climbing (both inside and out), cycling (commute), and hiking (varied distances) having recently gone on a 2 week expedition along the Morrocon Atlas peaks and valleys.
