Okay, so - we've got the contract, now, and I can finally say: remember the flat we were going to move to in Brighton?
Change of plan.
We will begin moving into our new house on Saturday. It's closer to the sea (yeah, I know - even closer) and closer to the centre of Brighton; maybe five minutes from the shopping centre. It's like a little, old fisherman's cottage; two really good sized bedrooms, a really decent sized kitchen and lounge (especially for the two of us) and then a kooky little bathroom with low ceilings and a sunken bath in the basement. It doesn't have a garden, but it does have a balcony, and our neighbours seem quite friendly.
For anyone who knows Brighton, it's between Regency Square and Argos on Western Road.
We're really happy with it. It's in the right areasuper-close to loads of Far Eastern restaurants, it's basically perfect for us, and the landlady is really nice.
There are no plans for a leaving or warming party (because it's going to be a strictly DRY house and I know that with the exception of
likethepaint and
bikerkiller, who lives in Chi anyway, you're all a bunch of fucking pissheads) but for those of you in London, we could meet up for coffee.
jackie_brown, whenever you're not studying/writing/trying to decide which Transformer has the most gravitas, we would love for you to come down and bestow the happy. We will of course return the favour in the form of goat's cheese.
(Anyone who does not know what the fuck we're talking about... well. The irony is, none of it is that cryptic.)
Matte and Lib have already booked their sofas, or expressed an interest in doing so - if anyone else wants to visit (you're not obliged to camp out, although, given that we're moving to Brighton it does seem somehow apt) you know where we are.
On Saturday, we'll record a before video, and then later we'll do an 'after' so you can see what we've got and what we've done with it.
But for now, to bed, because I feel like I have bleach in my eyes, rather than just mascara.

Glad you got the cottage. Sounds nice. Good luck with the moving. =)

It's not a cottage in the sense that it has a thatched roof and climbing roses, or anything, but it's a sweet little house.

We have a row of cottages like that down the road from where I live. Just cute little houses. Nice.

So you are moving in this Saturday? It is obviously in the air, because we are moving next Friday! We must do reciprocal photie and address swapping, although our 'after' shots are going to take forever, because we are both rubbish at all things DIY-ish.
If it is not the day after tomorrow, but next Saturday, can we fit in a coffee next week? I knew you were going around this time, but it has totally crept up on me.

I'm looking forward to seeing your new place! We must definitely compare. It's going to be so much fun...
