Day 2

Following our first clash with the new flat and the quirky problems, We had packed things into suit cases and got a bus from the farm my parents live in into town then swapped to got to the flat, before this as we still did not have a key we visited the agencey and sat for half an hour waiting on them to give us a close key, It was then I told them again about the windows the blind and the lovely polish neighbour who we call "B" and was advised by the very slow and a bit dim advisor Mark at the agency that I should get a Knife and try to open the windows myself and he then told me Its was my responsibility to put new blinds up.... When we got to what happened with "B" the agent started laughing and told me that I should hand her the broad band box and phone back and that I should take a photo of the hole in the wall.




So after all that we got the Key and dragged the suit cases up all the stairs to the 3rd floor and entered the flat at the time it looked great, we took loads of pictures of all the dents and marks on the walls, the damage on the carpets, the ceiling and done the inventory list (exiting stuff) All in all we were very excited and happy we had our lovely big flat and where so happy.



Then came the time for me to visit "B" and hand her back her broad band box and phone, I knocked don the door and told her the agency had advised me to give her the broad band back and she asked how long we were staying for.. I said 1 year and she said "good luck" at the time I didn’t pay much attention and thought maybe it was just that she didn’t like the area.



Later that day we went to Iceland and I got a loyalty card and was joking that Kerry Katona was my Idol and that that’s why mums go to Iceland! It was a good wee day and everything looked as if it was going great at that time and we had our first dinner in the new flat.

That night we had our 1st experience of the areas classy people with someone hanging out a window shouting "Michelle" in a really strong weegie accent "Michelle mon get yur dinner... MoNNNNN... Chellle!!! Monnnn get yur dinner!!! Cheellle!!!!" followed by the reply "Wiiit NOH!! F####k Aff Maw" Classy!

Im sure you can tell we loved the area already by that stage..
