Overheard on the Silverlink

Two bicycle couriers, drinking strong cider. I won't try to accurately portray the accents etc.

"I've squatted now for seven years - in loads of different places. But this one looks the best yet"
"Shall we go for it then"
"Yes"
"I'm only going though if we get that cleaner"
"Really"
"Yes, it's what - £5 or £7 an hour - and it'll only need three hours a week at most. I'll pay for it myself if necessary".

I'm not sure why I was under the impression that squats didn't have cleaners.
