My new pad

So lots has happened since I last posted – we all know I’m a bad poster. Let’s move on!

Cousin B got married! Then she got stuck on honeymoon due to the 6 day flight ban! I was a bridesmaid – I think it went well! No pictures as I was too busy being a bridesmaid/getting drunk/arranging the guestbook with Dad/losing my shoes and belt, but there are some around on FB etc.

As a sort of aside, a volcano erupted in Iceland and all flights to and from the UK were banned for 6 days – they started again yesterday. It was very odd not having vapour trails in the sky and no jet noise (everywhere I live is either near a large airport like Stanstead/City or a small airfield). It oddly seemed to have not much effect except on those abroad or wanting to go abroad at the time.

So I moved into a flat at the beginning of March. I decided I needed somewhere of my own rather than sharing with others or living at parents full time. It’s not bad – the neighbours (upstairs) aren’t too noisy and the area’s ok. This is the view from my backdoor – looking over fields and woodland :D. It’s a ground floor flat and has a patio (you can see the wall in the foreground), a lawn and a raised BBQ patio at the back. The only bad thing is no allocated parking.

This weekend is gardening weekend – planting seeds hopefully in the mini greenhouse I ordered, should come tomorrow. I still need to get another bookcase and sort through some stuff as it’s a bit boxes everywhere at the moment, but it’s getting there!
