I'm a Responsible Adult y'know
So, as many people already know, myself and Nayela have been working towards buying a house together. This is no longer the case, for we have now bought a house together :D.
We exchanged contracts last Thursday and today we completed, the old owners have now left and we have keys. WE spent the day moocing around it and trying to decide what we'd need, where we'd put it, and what colour walls and curtains would go with it once it was there, for varying values of 'it'.
This weekend, dad is hiring a van and transporting all our vast amounts of stuff up to the house. The house is in Reading, so we'll also both have to start looking for jobs up there too, I'm going to continue working in London and staying in our old place until I can get a job over there to be on the safe side.
Also, we now need to buy a whole lot of furniture for our new place, which is fun and exciting and quite possibly very expensive. Anyone have any old sofas or beds or anything lying around in their garages that we could take off your hands to get us started? :)
So there is our news. Exciting, isn't it? Once the place is in a decent state we shall be organising a housewarming party, so please watch this space.
Also, Hooorrrrraaaaayyyyy *waves arms around and runs across the room like a loon*
(Responsible. That's me *nods sagely*)
