| Seriously. Full apartment with lounge and laundry and everything cheaper than a youth hostel? Why?
And in other news there are schlümpfe on TV at the moment. Schlumpfing like mad. | comments: Leave a comment   |
| Mmm. Tipsy posting from Tokaj. Some veeeery nice wines around here. And the cellar door people are very willing to feed you much wine. Only went to three of them...
Maybe some more wine with dinner. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| Braşov has the cutest city slogan I've seen: "Probably the best city in the world"
(Also, the old town has a much more convincing medieval feel than the other ones we've been to) | | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment |
| Prague is hot. And spiky. Also very pretty. Hotel is ridiculously fancy, and we have a clock tower conveniently outside the window. Also a nice street nearby that appears to have the less touristy pubs and cafes (and therefore about half the price).
Running off to another pretty little Czech town tomorrow, might get to see the beginning of their St Wenceslas festivities. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| | Bangkok is hot. Moscow is hot too, but not as much. Moscow is also pretty, and has a very easy train system. And bureaucracy. | | comments: Leave a comment |

| Definitely not winter any more. Sigh.
Oh well, will be escaping some of spring in a few weeks, at least. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| Peter and I are engaged, and thought we should have a celebratory thing.
To that end, you are invited to come over to our place next Saturday (20 June) from 7pm. | | comments: 9 comments or Leave a comment |
| Apparently fire alarms don't work too well when the fire is caused by the power mains blowing...
ETA: Nothing to worry about, just got the day off work. In some ways it's probably lucky the fire alarm didn't go, since it meant that the foundry actually managed to get everything sorted out (and thus possibly avoiding worse damage). | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| So. We have a new lounge suite, and thus have extra furniture. A 3 seater couch and a chair (technically two chairs, but we're probably holding onto one at this point). I think they're comfortable, but they're getting a bit tatty - good student couches. Structurally they're sound, and there's nothing wrong with them that a bit of fabric thrown over them wouldn't fix.
Any takers? | | comments: Leave a comment |
| So. Whoever thought that summer was a Good Plan deserves to be shot. Right now.
Also, I'm impressed with the extreme silliness of the metservice, modifying their predicted high temperature from 36 (probably achieved, even by their weather station - it definitely got to 35) to 33. Well after the 35 occurred. Idiots. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| | So. I have a new phone. (Well, technically I don't have it until my birthday, but I'm ignoring that fact). It is smaller and shinier and fancier than the old one, not that that would be hard. It has a colour screen, and the ability to write in lower case and everything... | | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment |
| Well, that was fun. First medication I've ever had any particularly nasty reaction to. Won't be allowed that one any more.
Here's hoping that the next batch has no unexpected side effects. | | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment |
| After finally giving in and going to the doctor I have antibiotics. One day I will learn to deal with these things sooner. Maybe...
I still blame Christchurch. | | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment |
