Sneak-peak of our apartment

The inside of our house still isn't as we'd like it; funds prevent us from spending any more on it for the time being. After we're no longer ashamed we'll post some pics. For now, here is a teaser - the mysterious and fascinating outside.

The imposing facade

The mysterious alleyway

The ancient, rimed picnic table

The terrifying front door

We live in the basement - you can see our bedroom window behind the stairs in the first picture. We walk through the alley to the back garden, and then down some steps to our front door. The ground floor is occupied by two women about our age, who are very nice and who we've had a beer or two with (and who have kindly let us put a wireless hub in their house so that we can all share Internet connectivity). The upper two floors are the residence of four students who never seem to be home.

Unemployed life is relatively boring and depressing. Normally I'd use this time to get back into swimming every day, join the local Ultimate society, check out the local museums etcetera. However, I've done something hurty to my knee, and I can't walk more than fifty metres or so without hobbling like a gimp. So I'm pretty much stuck in the house feeling sorry for myself. I've got a physio appointment on Monday... hopefully they can sort me out.

Well, farwell until the next time, when I will relate the tale of Lord Onikage and the furniture ninja.
