Unbelievable, another week has just gone by.. What have we done last week? Well, mainly looking round a bit in several stores. Since we have bought a house now, we know that we will have to buy some furniture to complement the stuff that is coming over on the container. Of corse, anything more than looking is not possible. First we want to be certain that the settlement date is sure. And of course we also want to be sure that the container has arrived in time. By the way, we have actually gotten the approval for the finance subject to valuation. This valuation should take place in the next few days.
What we have been looking for in the shops is: a couch (needed for the livingroom/theatre-room), a dinner table, a fridge (yes, a big one like they usually are over here ;-). And (almost) last but not least we will also have to buy a new dvd-player (region free) to be able to play our own dvd's as well as the new ones we will buy here in the future. And than the very last: a big plasma screen.... To be honest we think that will be our most improtant new item for the house.
We are pretty certain which one we'ld like to have, but if anyone has ideas, do's or dont's etc in this field, please let us know. (We are looking for a 50 inch screen;-).
Today we did a nice bike ride along (a part of) the Swan river (or rather a side-arm of the river). With 38 km we are making progress!
