On the Move

After 3 wonderful years in our current flat it's time to move. I thought it would be heart wrenching to leave such a beautiful place, with so many fun memories (including Kieran proposing in the spare room while I made my Scrabulous moves on Facebook), but now that we have to go I'm all up for a quick getaway.

So, last Thursday we started the campaign of looking for a place. And to be honest it started to be a bit soul destroying looking at places that were twice the rent but barely half as good as this one.

But I think we have found one. And it's just around the corner. And it's even got a garden. I'm thinking BBQs and growing herbs and a place for visiting smokers to congregate. All things we've not had for a while. Signed the contract tonight & just waiting for the final ok before we head into the collision that will be packing, planning a wedding, & running a marathon in Copenhagen (not me-Kieran wanted me to add that one) & going to the Eurovision, while working full time and trying to read the Orange nominees before early June. Something's gonna have to give. Probably the Orange books.

why do you have to move? have your landlords been hit by the global credit crunch? that's why we're moving.

not quite- they are coming back from New York. To be honest we've had 3 years in their flat which is 2 years longer than we ever expected so we no complain!!

When are you moving?
