Luxury of luxuries, today I don't have to go out. This is a highly unusual occurrence and a moment to be treasured. Especially since it is -14 outside and getting colder by the minute. Whenever there is a South wind blowing, as there is today, the inside of the flat gets a bit chilly - despite the only slightly effective radiators and only slightly effective lagging of the windows.
Here then are 2 pictures of the inside of the flat - a bog standard Russian flat known colloquially as a панельное (домостроение) or panel/sectional flat, as opposed to a Крущёвка (one built during the Krushchov era) or a коммуналка (a house or apartment block with shared facilities). Often I don't need to turn my radio or television on as I can just listen to my neighbours' sets but at least "the facilities" don't need to be shared with anyone!

Ну, чтож поделать? Каждый арендует жилье по своим средствам… Вам доступно только такое :)
