At the risk of sounding naive, is there a reason why you don't have
separate users for your housemates? For the few days between moving
house and setting up my network I had a user for my girlfriend on my
laptop. She couldn't touch my work data, and equally importantly
couldn't damage system files.

Plus she liked Ubuntu so much she wanted it on her machine. What she
didn't know that she was getting it well before she asked for it :)
