Last night we managed to get the new living room (very big) to resemble its intended purpose and not a store room. All the furniture is successfully rebuilt. The missus has buggered off to London for a long weekend with the daughter to help her prepare for a big job interview, I've been to the supermarket to get me some supplies (lots of meat, bread products and snacks), I have a car full of the last of our belongings to move (yep that'll be like that until the morning) I am home alone and it's f***ing great. Playing some dub, Sky news on silent, beer opened in front of me, lying on the sofa without a care in the world right now. No competing interests for entertainment, eat what I want when I want (yep its deffo an off diet weekend). I have lots of moving in chores to do over the weekend but tonight I'm doing sod all for the first time in ages and I'm going to enjoy the moment 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rental Market is nuts, couldn't find anything North of the city remotely suitable There are pros and cons tbh. Going out for a night has just become much cheaper to get home, I also have two decent restaurants on my doorstep and loads more little over a mile away, the river is just down the road, I can get a bus or a train into town with little effort but I'll miss the peace and quiet and the view out of the window but I'm also saving money on what I was paying Having said that I wouldnt have moved unless I had to 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 I can absolutely appreciate the level of skill curling takes, but it's the most ludicrous looking sport in the world. I'm fully on board with the principles of the game until you bring brooms into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them are pretty good. But some are... not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
