Today (that is 4.00 am) we received a (automatic generated) email that our container has arrived in Fremantle (which is exactly the date that has been planned 2 months ago), and is now on its way to the licensed bond of the Australian Customs. So, next week after the long weekend we expect to be contacted by the moving company about further steps and details.
We are of course very happy that there have been no delays! The house will (assuming no unexpected surprises will occur of course ;-) be transferred to us on June the 26th. So that's 3 weeks after coming Monday.
Last week we have againg been busy shopping for furniture. Meanwhile we have bought a couch set (3-2-2) for the 'games' room where the audio/video set up will be placed. You may think we're not right in the head, but the color we ordered it in is: snow-white!
Also last week we bought some appliancies (fridge, washer, dryer, microwave/oven combination) and a coffee machine (espresso/cappuncino).
Finally today we have bought a sofa for in the family room. This one in red. For those of you who can remember, 2 months ago (in Holland) we were saying that we would most likely NOT buy anything leather to sit on.... Well, we have been wrong ;-) As well the couch set as the sofa is leather... Since we have evaporative airconditioning in the house, we expect we should not regret that in summer ... !
About the work, as mentioned last week the bigger firms (where we have apllied for job(s)) do take their time to make decisions, so no news there yet. The only new information is that I (Peter) will be having a meeting with two consultants at the same recruitment office that Ellen has been last week.
All of you have a nice long weekend, enjoy the soccer game (Holland - Australia) if you can ;-)
