Approaching my first week in my new house and it's been great ( so far ).
Small problems like - my wet room collects water in one spot that doesn't dry - so i just bought a mop to run over the floor once i'm done showering. Solved.
Also - I have to pay all utilities. I don't need hot water for washing up, my shower is electric and it's summer so I don't need the gas until Winter = less bills
Doing way more hours at work so that *should* easily hold me over until my housing allowance is paid.
The upstairs flat *so far* hasn't been noisy. My first night was a bit stressful as I was expecting to hear loud music at 3am. Hasn't happened yet.
Plus this time - if things *do* get a bit noisy - My Dad's house and my Grandad's house are 6 miles away so i've got other places I can crash for the night. In Reading I was kinda trapped in my flat.
IRONY TIME !
Work is like a 5 minute walk from my house - so I don't really have any excuse to be late but on Wednesday - my alarm was set for 8:30 to get me in to work for 10:00 - but for whatever
reason It didn't wake me up and I woke up - at 10:00am
oopsie.
Yo yo yo. Gettin me some chknpotpie for dinner tonight.
Sounds good !
. My absolute favourite meal is Cottage Pie with a drizzling of ketchup. SO GOOD.
