19th January 2012
It's been a while since I've blogged as we moved house recently and we don't have internet access at our apartment yet. I'm using my work internet at the moment. Shhh, don't tell them.
We moved into the apartment on Tuesday and apart from having a nightmare with the pre-tenancy cleaning (you don't want to know), it's really nice. We'll put some pics on very soon but in the meantime, here is the website where it is listed:
It has a nearly-new kitchen and bathroom and whilst it's small, it's big enough for the two of us. The apartment block has a pool, hot tub and a roof terrace that has amazing 360% views of Sydney. There is a BBQ up there and toilets so if we want to hang out with friends, we've got a really cool place to go.
I started my new job on Friday 13th and despite the date, everything went well. The people are nice and the work is fine. Phil has had to work late a few times so I'd better find something to keep me out of trouble in the evenings. He's settling in too though.
I've been hearing lots of stories about spiders which makes me none-too-pleased but I'm going to have to get over that I suppose. If you get a chance, put 'Huntsman Spider' into Google. These are one of the most common spiders in Australia and they are completely harmless. Still, you wouldn't want one running over your face in the middle of the night would you?!?! They are named after their speed and mode of hunting and they are pretty good jumpers. Can you think of anything worse? Whilst the Redback spider is quite rare in the centre of Sydney, Huntsmans are quite common. As soon as I see one, I may just be on the next flight home!
I'll do a proper update over the weekend when I'm not skiving :)
