Moving This Weekend

The postings might be a little light over the next few days. I’m moving into a new flat. The flat I moved into when I got here is leased by my employer and their lease is up. The landlord wants the place back to redecorate which is code for raising the rent. It does need redecorated though. The furniture could use a little updating (perhaps to something from this decade). So, I could move out and find a place to crash until the redecorating is done and then move in at a higher rent or I could just move once and find a new place. I’m notoriously lazy so I found a new place.

It’s up the road a bit, closer to the border. My commute to the office will go from a 5 min walk to, oh no, a 10 minute walk. It’s also a little nicer than the place I have currently but it’s about 100 GBP more a month which is about what I would expect my current landlord to raise the rent by anyway.

Anyway, no interwebs connection when I move in. The place is wired for DSL (supposedly) but I have to call and order it. This being Gib . . . I’m just going to expect to be without for at least a week or so. In other words, probably a few less posts. I’ll try to queue stuff up to publish automatically if I can.
