New house

On Thursday night I took Dave to look round the house in Heaton Chapel and he was suitably impressed. Tonight we decided to go for it. He said that the third person Simon would be happy more or less with anything that we ar (within reason, of course) so it looks like it's going ahead. Now we just need to hand in our notice to Opal and get the flat into a respectable state. We're planning to move on the first weekend in October, but having a 1 month notice period means that we'l have a leisurely week or so to move from that date. Much better than having to fit it into a single day.

Oh, shit. That reminds me. I'll have left my current job by then so won't have access to a car. Can I blag a couple of hours time from any of you car drivers? I'll pay with sex alcohol and/or chocolate? :-)

I've done nothing of note all day today. A load of laundry, perhaps, but that hardly counts.

Tonight's Wikipedia reading has consisted of hydrocarbons and organic chemistry (Alkenes etc) and broadcast TV encoding systems (PAL and others).

Oh, new userpic which I've not used in a post before. (You may have seen it in the odd comment though)
