No, officer, I've no idea how that house ended up in my pocket...

Now you have to pay for it.

In the good news, welcome back to the real world (or a close proximity to it, anyway ;-). When are you taking visitors?

It looks really nice! What are you going to do with the back garden?

And when are you moving in?

We only just put in the offer today, but neither side has a chain so hopefully things will move a bit faster than normal... of course, I have to learn to drive before I can get in to work from there - I'm cycling 20 km per day atm but it would be more like 70 km from Lechlade which is a bit too much for me...

The back garden will need serious work, ~ 100 m of new fence, new garage, possibly new lawn (if the old one can't be rescued), new drive way. But it'll be a pwoject! and we should get plenty of firewood out of it. On the plus side, it already has various fruit trees and a yew tree (for making long bows).

By the way, I'll be out at CERN 21st - 26th Feb if you fancy meeting up for a pint??

Cool, we should definately try and meet up. Where will you be exactly? Im in Basel but I can travel a bit if necessary (easy to do over here, the trains are excellent!)

Oops that's quite a long way - for some reason I thought you were in geneva (where cern is)!
