Moving house, Day two.

Yar! It's midday and I need another damn cup of tea!

We got access to the place at 8am today. We quickly raced over to grab the keys from the property manager and have another quick inspection to make sure that everything was looking good. I am happy to report that everything does indeed look great with the place.

We headed back home to have some breakfast and a cup of tea, had some words with Daniel (Chemical Spill) online and then it was time to get cracking. We loaded my Falcon up to the brim with boxes and bags full of gear. It was a lot of stuff, the back end of the car was sitting so low it looked like it had been lowered with sports suspension and springs! :)

We took all of the stuff over there, unloaded it into the main living room, closed the place up and went to get some shopping. It all seems to be taking much longer than you would think, but at least it feels relaxed and is not too perplexing.

Right, I am starving. Time to inspect the kitchen and the recent shopping to see what delicious treats I can get myself in to. :)

Oh yeah, as a side note. When Daniel was talking to me this morning, he filled me in on a new game pack that is available via Steam (the program required to play many of Sierra's online games such as Half Life 2). Apparently they have teamed up with Id Software to bring you the Id Super Pack. This pack includes many of the old favourites such as Wolfenstien 3D, Doom, Quake, Hexen and Commander Keen. The price is USD$69.95 which works out to be around AUD$90.00. I will be buying this pack as soon as I get paid!

My parents will be upset that you guys moved out while they were away and they didn't get a chance to say goodbye. They've really appreciated having such great neighbours all these years.
HOpefully our mums will have a chance to catch up soon though.

If you need any help moving let me know, but you are probably done by now.

I have a strange feeling that we will be around to catch up! :)

Dad will most likely be doing work on the old place before he sells it on, and we might be over here helping out as well - at least, after we get our own place sorted out. :)

Thank you for the offer of helping move too, but you are right. We are almost done! :)

Daniel said...

Monday morning and I sat into my rental Subaru Impreza WRX STi...ups, dreaming... Well, my rental car anyway. The plan was to drive about 1000 kms north of Australia in the next couple of days and then return to Perth. The towns in WA are rather small with none of them having more than 30.000 people (Perth excluded). Only in the outback you get to know what being reeeeaaaaallllyyy easy going means. One of the reasons why I enjoy outback so much.
