Hi all,
I’ve got a new house. I moved in over the last two weekends – but didn’t want to tell anyone in case it turned out to be another scam. But, now I live there – and can proudly announce that I am a permanent resident of Clapham Road.
Some vague details: I now dwell in Oval – of The Oval fame. Yep – I live within 5 minutes walk of London’s second most famous cricket ground. If my precedent of living 5 minutes from the MCG in Melbourne holds true – I will never actually step foot in The Oval. I live with one other guy – a polish chap who’s been living in London for 8 years. My highly-refined gay-dar sets off whenever he’s around – but I haven’t asked him if he actually is gay or not… I guess I’ll find out one day, one way or the other. I’ve got a rather good sized room – big enough for bed, couch, entire wall of closet-space (insert your own gay joke – because I ain’t doing it for you), and a desk which also stretches for an entire wall. Bored yet? I also have a jacuzzi. And a massive kitchen – bigger than most London flats in their entirety.
Anybody who’s interested in more details, such as the actual address – send me an email. I have too many enemies (and creepy admirers) to post my actual address in the open. (You know who you are).
Not much other news. I’m slowly taking steps towards getting a motorcycle licence. I’ve got so far as getting the form for swapping my NZ licence for a UK one thus far.
I don’t have a proper landline available at my new place, so international phone calls might become even more of a rarity. Hopefully I’ll be getting a microphone for my laptop soon – and will be able to talk to the technologically-equipped of you via Skype or MSN.
