    i've missed you all as well. hopefully we'll have phone and broadband on thursday and i know the first thing i'll be doing.

    we're settling in, lots of things to do but that will be the case for a fair few years yet. Had a visitation from some of the outlaws yesterday which was fun.

    i did turn one pair of curtains that i bought reduced over christmas into two pairs which i'm pleased with, not perfect but then that's ok because they would look out of place if they were lol
