WE HAZ A FLAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a day! We fought (I never knew I could actually drive Aine to the edge, but today I did!), made up over dipdabs (for me) and a bean thing (for her), viewed 3 flats of which the first was HOT and the second was SHIT and the third was LOVELY. But when we pulled rooms, I got the small one and there's not enough storage in there for me (my books) so I voted no. The second was soooo dismal after seeing the sexiness of the first. And the third is when I accepted us to live, nice bedroom sizes and storage areas. Though it was a good £90 more expensive than sexyflat. So after a long discussion Aine and I decided to swap rooms and go for sexyflat. Which is the cheapest flat we've seen and yet the most modern.
So we have a small bathroom- shower, no bath (yay! A proper shower!), a big double- with a nice window and wardrobe (yay! A wardrobe!), a fucking hot kitchen with a dishwasher (omg! Dishwasher!) and a microwave in a cupboard with an oven at person height (yay! No bending down anymore!) and a decent sized fridge/freezer that is modern. We have a lounge (with a sexy purple couch) and OFF THE LOUNGE is the other double- which is quite cool. Sooooooo lounge! With dining space! And niceness! And wooden floors in the bedroom! Joy.
We're meeting the lawyers on thursday/friday and moving in on Saturday.
Watch out Newington! Charley's coming back!
We'll be on causeway side, close to the tesco metro, buttttttt close to THE SHOP (the dvd/cd shop of fantasticness which I went to every week in first year), we're closer to uni (so we might actually go, and don't have to get on a bus to go there) and my room has a little grate outside, I could get plants! Not that that is likely. But cool!
We'll be mostly rearranging on Saturday me thinks, I'm thinking of getting an all day ticket on monday and just moving most of my shit by bus.
Hoooooraaaaaaay! KB is on holiday so we can't gloat infront of her yet, but I'm hoping that by the time she gets back we will be mostly moved and she'll be really surprised and we can be all casual and "yeah, we found a flat....2 bwahahahahahahaha.
Flat for Charley!
