The new house is luverly. Its near enough to town to walk, but far enough away to not tell you when every train goes past, and to not have lanky Darrens spitting at lamposts outside. Hopefully.

We have our own garage, and a little garden (the guy who lived there before was a landscape architect... ooo-er) with wooden decking and a very symettrical and neat lawn with random shrubbery.

The house is actually maisonette style, a larger house made into two houses, and we have the bottom floor, so its a bit like a bungalow. And the doors are pine, rather than this wank MDF crap I've been living with since Uni.

"Ahhhh yes Miss Damini, the doors are made from cutting edge playdoh, cunning crafted to look like Balsall wood stolen from the seventies"

And the lounge has enough room to swing several cats strung together, or one very elongated cat.

I love it. The student house I live in now has gone rotten - there is an unlocatable stench in the lounge, which is vaguely like compost, and I'm just very tired of being leeched from.

I predict that by the end of the summer this garden will feature a wonderful example of pure, English foliage, having been allowed to thrive and prosper in the way nature intended with no interference from man nor machine.

We found the remains of two christmas trees, a sofa and two large illuminated roadsigns in our garden.

All we were missing was a Cortina on bricks, a mattress and a barking Alsation chained to a post.

*huff, puff*

Still moving shit around.

We have succesfully emptied one room (almost).

My room (as you can see from the web cam) still has rather a lot of work needing to be done on it. EEP!

My computer, of course, will be the last thing shifted up to the new house simply cos we don't have ADSL up there (yet). So my need for net access and/or broadband means it stays here for now, till the last car load.

We spent the night in our new house last night drinking champagne while eating.....fish and chips. Classy eh?

We managed to get the bed from my sister. Orignally she had said we could have it for £100 (pretty cheap for a pine bed and double matress as far as I understand). But then she changed her mind and said we could have it as a house warming present! Bonus!

then they popped round and brought us a sandwich toaster!
I'm utterly confused as this is the sister who wished I was dead a few years ago (aren't families great? :) ).

So by the end of today, I should have finished moving in with Damini properly, rather than in a shared house. It will be our own little space. Hopefully by the end of next week, we should have ADSL installed too. :) But I need to get my wages through first cos we need to buy a modem/router as we're gonna get "wires-only". Oh, and them micro doo-daas.

All in all it's going pretty well. We had a minor bust up due to Damini being far to much of a nagging cow but we've made up. ;)

I'll post some photo's of the new house once we're settled so you can all have a good gawp.

TTFN!

Damini did the packing, I did the box shifting.

She is weak and feeble, I am am grr and strong.


Short break now. Hope to be completely moved by around 8 ish tonight.

Can anyone tell me an ISP I can sign up with for a few days just so I can get dial up access to the net. For some reason BT screwed up when we had our phone installed. We rang our mobiles to find out what the phone number is and it showed "Private Number". So we rung BT to ask what our number was and were told they couldn't tell us cos we were ex directory!!! We now have to wait days for some stupid letter to come through the post before we find out our number.

So anyway, most ISP's I see won't let you phone up unless you have CLI activated. Because of BT's fuck up, we have no CLI and so I suspect most will just drop us as soon as we connect.

So.....any ISP's out there who we could use on an 0845 thing for a few days?
