Winter at home

Not only did we have bagels and streaky strips, yes Lawrie real streaky strips, for our first breakfast in our new house; but we woke up to find that the world had gone white overnight.

After clearing the drive and path like a citizens we ventured out to do our first big food shop and then to buy pots, pans, cutlery and stuff. I had fun playing in the snowy car parks with our little car and watching the big SUVs struggling to get around.

Unfortunately the plumber installed the dishwasher incorrectly and water streams into sink each time we use it and the gas has not been turned on to the cooker so we are being inventive with our food in the microwave. Don't worry this will be sorted out shortly.

Our phone is now connected (703-619-0041), but don't forget we are five hours behind the UK The TV should be sorted on Monday and we should be (legally) online on the 28th.
