INTVEEs moved into their flat three weeks ago from Leith. They moved in in one day and didn't meet anyone but spent the day arranging their furniture. They found themselves whispering to each other on the first day then wondered why they were being so quiet, they find the district pleasant and quiet with all the children quiet by 9pm which is the time they were starting to get noisy down in Leith. They have two children, the eldest child still goes to school in Leith, the youngest is not yet school age. The youngest is not allowed out to play even though other children have been asking him to. When asked about their new house the wife is quoted as saying "Oh it's ideal. We're very pleased with it". They like the shape of the rooms and describe the kitchen as a "dream kitchen". They had looked at a sub-let in Barnton but the kitchen was too small to eat in. They will soon be eligible for a four-apartment as their eldest will turn 10 so are puzzled as to why the corporation didn't give them one straight away. INTVER describes the house as "looking very bright and new with their new three-piece suite in black and red moquette, and a new carpet on the floor. They had a dining table in the sitting room and a side-board" when asked if they use it they say never do. "There were one or two rather fussy plastic ornaments, and a budgerigar and a tortoise and a piano too". The corporation had given them the keys and said they could have a look before deciding if they wanted it but felt under pressure to accept or wait a long time for another one. They have been told nothing about the house except the rent and it took three weeks for them to realise the fire could be lit from a gas jet beside it.
