We have now lived in our apartment for almost two weeks and we have pretty much settled in. We still don’t have a table though so that’s pretty high on the list as soon as we get a bit of money, also we haven’t really worked out a good place to keep our bikes so they live on the balcony at the moment which isn’t really ideal.

I’ve started two jobs the last week: making coffee’s three days a week at a place around 3km from the apartment and waiting tables at a restaurant just around a corner a couple of times a week. It’s not really the line of work I’m planning on doing the rest of my life but it pays the bills for now while I’m looking for something else.

Now to the phone problems, after finding a good deal for our phone and broadband connection with AAPT we were promised the phone would be up and running this Monday and the broadband modem would arrive around a week later. The phone is still not working and after a couple of phone calls and a lot of time listening to crap “on hold” music I just found out that we can’t get the phone connected because the prior tenant didn’t disconnect it properly. So now we have to try and get a hold of him to disconnect it and then call AAPT to reconnect it and after that it will be at least a week before we get our broadband! so I’m stuck at internet cafe’s for a while longer….

Anyway I’m having a day off today and Bec is at home at the farm so I’ll probably head down to the beach for a swim and enjoy the sun, See you all soon
