Another day, another place to live...

Well, survived my brief soujourn at the b&b place. Moved out on Thursday morning and wasn't that sorry. Why is it that b&b owners are either really friendly and parenty (not in a bad way) OR slightly odd. The owners of the b&b I stayed at were unfortunately of the latter type. Couldn't put my finger on it exactly, but they were odd. And not in a good way.
Anyway, throught the kindness of one of my new colleagues, KK from Singapore, I am staying with him for a while in his 2-bed place. He's here for 3 months before heading back to Singapore and his family are joining him in April. So he kindly offered me the spare room until then. Really helped me out. So, here I am.
Now toying with the idea of getting a 2-bed place and finding someone myself, since it seems like less hassle. I've never had to do this whole flat mate hunting thing and it's quite a stain, especially with work being quite hectic. Could do without it to be honest. Was also toying with finding a 1-bed place, but that still seems a little excessive to me and not necessarily what I want to spend my money on. Still, I have become quite intolerant in my old age of other people's habits(!) so the idea quite appeals. Watch this space.
Not much else to report, work continues to be good but challenging. Getting busier, meeting more people which is great and generally settling into life here. Just need a place to root down in is all....
Oh, yeah, the place I'm staying has OFF-STREET-PARKING! which is very exciting for Edinburgh and means that finally my car isn't 20mins walk away from my accomodation! This is a good thing. Although the idiots who designed the car park were not cycleists - how else could you explain the fact that the cycle racks, although in the garage area, are not under a solid roof but a grill -- which of course means they get very wet in the rain. The cars of course stay nice and dry! Bonkers. Truly bonkers!
