Default Privacy in garden

Hello all,
I have a weeny garden overlooked by two big blocks of flats. I expect to have moved from this flat by summer 2007, so I need a very fast solution to my privacy problem.
My partner is building me a pergola this week and I want something to cover it for next summer. (optimistic?) Lots of people say mile a minute is too rampant, but in my situation perhaps it would be worth it?
I just want somewhere shady and private to sit with my baby next summer, then I'm outta here!
Any other suggestions? I've had honeysuckle and clematis suggested - but I really don't think they will cut it for next year. The onlooking windows are sooo close I need growth above my head before it will be private. The soil is very dry and solid clay at ten inches deep.
Kate
