I am moving house!

[Dasquian Belargic]

Tomorrow!

Well, not really moving house, so much as moving down into the flat below the one I'm in now. We weren't really clear on when we were going, but apparently tomorrow is the day and I have yet to start packing or cleaning.

As usual with this kind of thing, I'm not sure what the crack with the internet will be, so I might drop off the face of the internet for a little while.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Good luck! I bet you'll find stuff you completely forgot you had :p

[Razielle Alastor]

Wowsers! You better get moving, literally. :wave

Take care, see you when you get back!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I can't start packing until my mum gets here with boxes and such, so I have just been taking everything down from my walls and throwing out anything that I don't really need.

I doubt I will find stuff I forgot I had.. I only moved in here a year ago, and I only brought the 'essentials' with me. All the useless rubbish that I have forgotten about is still at my parents house :mneh

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

What are parents for, if you can't exploit them for storage ^_^;

[Hartus Kenobi]

Man, I hope you have a comfortable time moving your stuff out of and into a different space. I feel it's one of the most stressful things to do.

[Dasquian Belargic]

It shouldn't be too bad, since all we really have to do is carry the stuff downstairs. At least I hope it won't be too stressful. I am looking forward to having a new bedroom to decorate/mess-up... though it is much smaller than my current room :(

[Razielle Alastor]

How come the move, Jen? :huh

[Dasquian Belargic]

Our contract was only for one year, since it's only a student property.

[Razielle Alastor]

Ahh, gotcha. You paying the same rent for less room? I hope not. :(

[Dasquian Belargic]

We're paying substantially less rent, thankfully. I'll be saving about £110/$218 a month :)

[Razielle Alastor]

More cider for joo, then. :p

:lol, I kid. That's great news.

[Droo]

Well, that is one way of tidying that room of yours. :p

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Another way to tidy it is dynamite. Lots of dynamite!

Or would that just make it messier? :uhoh

Anyway good luck with the moving and stuff. :)

[Aurelias Kazaar]

I prefer acid.

[Jaime Tomahawk]

They are? Then how come I seem to have trailers, cars and bits from Dad at my place....?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

You've gotten to the certain age where the 'rents start to lean on you for support/storage. ;)

[Wyl Staedtler]

Hope the moving went well! Though considering it's only one floor down, you would have to have been up to some shenanigans for it not to. ;)

[Dasquian Belargic]

Apparently we aren't moving until tomorrow.

We're moving in before our tenancy actually starts, but apparently the housing agency are asking us to pay for the extra 11 days we'll be there, even though the landlord originally didn't mention anything about extra money! :mad

[Miranda Tarkin]

:mad

is there any way to contest that since that is a load of crap?

[Dasquian Belargic]

I'm not sure. It doesn't seem like there is very good communication going on between the landlord and the agency, because we talk to the landlord pretty regularly and he hadn't mentioned it. It's probably just to cover more admin fees for the greedy agency. :rolleyes

[Dasquian Belargic]

Well, all of my stuff - besides my clothes, which I am just going to carry downstairs on their hangers - is bagged up. I am just taking a little break, before I move some more stuff down into the living room, because it is sooo hot today >_< I think we are going to head to the pub after everything is transferred, for some ice-cool Cider :D

I just called my brother to ask how warm it really is in London right now, given he lives there.

The explitives about how Londoners have no idea what hot means was very entertaining.

[Dasquian Belargic]

London will probably be much warmer than Newcastle right now. They always have better weather than us. :mad

Better.... weather.....

WTF!!!!!


I really need to invite Ballistik here to reply to that. Oh he's got a thing or two say about London weather!

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

This is like the shorts in fifty or so degree weather arguments that Alaskans pull. Yeah, fifty degrees may not be all that cold to them, but to someone who's used to very warm weather it is.

You gotta factor in all the variables, you taterhead :p

[Razielle Alastor]

Yeah, hot and cold are very different regionally speaking. :( Hot here in NC I sweat. Hot in FL I saw little red monsters with pitchforks running about. :p

HOT?! You haven't a clue what hot is. It's 21 c where you are. It's 31c here with a 21*F dewpoint. It's not even hot yet here. It's sucky, but ugh, August is coming. Hello 35c and 25 c dewpoints.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Yep, what we consider warm and pleasant is probably cold to quite a lot of people here, and our 'cold' would be freezing.

I am posting from the new house, btw. We still have the keys to the place upstairs, so I am just using our old internet connection. I had to go upstairs to use the shower since the one down here appears to be broken! So much for them checking everything was working before we moved in! :mad

Kill em. On the other hand, you have two flats now.. yay! :p

[Dasquian Belargic]

If we didn't have to leave upstairs in a decent condition, I'd have a party up there :D

That's not hot. Try 47c and then we're talking bucko.

Yeah. I remember when I went to visit I was wearng all sorts of bulky stuff to stay warm, while you and your mom seemed very comfy in sweaters or light jackets. And that was in October. I felt silly wearing all that bulk, but I really was cold. ^_^;

(And I miss those fish and chips, dammit!)

Glad the move went ok, but dude, wtf about the shower?? It's time to demand they fix that seeing as how you ARE paying to live there. That typically means they're in charge of the workings and what have you for the place.

[Morgan Evanar]

That's not hot. Try 47c and then we're talking bucko. We get up to about 40 c. 35 c is hot. 40+ is scorching.

I'm surprised you didnt comment on me possibly inviting Kaptain "What the hell did he just say???" over here.
