Brief check-in

Sep 03, 2004 12:06

I have arrived safely in Belfast, and found a flat so quickly that I didn't have to stay in the hall of residence even for one night after all! Even the estate agents agreed it was probably their quickest ever time from a viewing to handing over the keys: saw the place at about 2:30, had the keys in my hand by 5, and had all my stuff in there by 7 ( Read more... )

Thanks! Would you like to get together for coffee or lunch early next week? I was going to ask you if you wanted to get lunch together on Monday, but I'm afraid a colleague in my new department has already booked me for Monday lucnhtime. But any other day is free for lunch, and coffee is good at any time of course.

My office is in 4, University Square by the way, if you ever want to drop in on me during working hours. I do have a phone there, but can't remember its number: I'll be posting full contact details on LJ once I'm not having to use net cafes any more (as I am now).

And the flat is in Cussick St., which is a cul-de-sac between Eglantine Rd and Wellington Park off the Lisburn Rd. It's really nice, and actually quite a lot like my place in Oxford.

Yeah that sounds good :) How about Wednesday at 12.30 for lunch? Would you prefer pub or coffee shop type place? If there's anywhere in particular you fancy that's fine with me.
Do you mean Eglantine Avenue (which is where I used to live)? I can't think of an Eglantine Road. I'm trying to think of it - must be pretty close to where we used to be :)
Look forward to seeing you soon - you still have my mobile number I presume so you can always text/phone re. Wed.

Still in cafe at the mo! Yes, I do mean Eglantine Ave (I couldn't think what type of road it was, so guessed!).

12:30 on Weds sounds great. Don't really mind what kind of place: I'm happy for you to choose, as I'm sure you know the best options.

Yup, I do still have your mobile no., so we can iron out details that way.

Great :) Maggie Mays is quite nice - up near The Empire. How about we meet there at 12.30 Wed?

Sounds great! I'll meet you outside. Call if you want to change anything. Sorry this is brief: net cafe again!
