These are all the things in Siobhan's archives tagged as "househunting". If you want to narrow it down, you can use more than one tag, seperating them with a space.
You should have seen the looks we got, last night, walking out of the building with two G5, three iMac, and a Cinema Display piled on top of a trolley, heading towards my car. There was quite a few people around - all for an opening in the gallery - and the confusion on their faces wasn't (perhaps) helped by our now-traditional tendency to mutter things like "What do you reckon? 200 quid on eBay each?" as we walked past them.
The sunlight was streaming through the curtains this morning, as I lay wrapped in a duvet on the floor in Harrogate. Frank (the cat) was running around with a piece of paper he'd "caught", and the dull thud of a cider and wine headache was starting to creep into my forehead.
C'mon then. I'll give you a tour...
Various things have happened here recently to put me in a more positive frame of mind when it comes to flat-hunting. There's a sense in my head that in a couple of weeks time, I'll actually be able to walk into a flat and - if I like it - say "Yup, I'll take it".
Sixteen years ago (roughly) I drove down the M6 to Lancaster for the first time[1], parked my little red Mini in Pendle car park, and reluctantly began what I thought was going to be a year's break from the pleasantries of Ambleside.
You'll have to excuse my woe-betides mood last night. Let me try and explain...
I'm not - as anyone who's ever been to my house will tell you - the most fastidiously hygenic person in the world. I do tend to leave things lying around, and I don't always wash up immediately after eating, or wipe up the odd spillage the miniute the wine hits the floor...
