Sunday - time to move in

No workmen today so it is a time for trying to piece together an indoor campsite that will stand us in good stead for a week or so.

There are 2 empty rooms - main bedroom and bedroom #2 - hereinafter referred to as temporary living room. We move some chairs in get a television, we have a few lying around, get a coffee table, a picnic table and a couple of folding chairs.

Claire calls and is coming over with bagels .

Put the bed together - can't work out out to assemble the frame so the box spring is on the floor.

So let's see what we have.

1) Relatively uncluttered sleeping area - check
2) Place to relax, eat, watch TV - check
3) Bathroom that works - check (well apart from that no door thing)
4) Place to plug in my kettle and a fridge for the milk - check

Need to go to buy some stuff - walk to a place called TOPS on the waterfront (it's not really that close to the water). Good stuff but the neat thing here is that they have a room that is a refrigerator. So rather than finding the milk etc. in cabinets around the edge of the room it is just in the room on shelves.

So - bedroom is OK, toilet is OK (we have a sink but no shower), heat is on, power is on. I think we are good to go.

Dinner - Cheese from the corner cheese shop (a gift from the family in Australia - thank you very much).

Exhausted again - time for bed.
