Checking In!

Well, the move is done. Keys handed over for the old place. The new place is a bit of a mess right now - so many boxes and bags. I can't find anything including, unfortunately, my wallet (which contains my bank cards). I assume it's around somewhere.

It's nice to be able to relax a bit for now. The last week has been very, very stressful. Piratecat was unfortunate enough to phone me up just as I was lugging furniture about, so probably heard nothing but me panting down the phone!

Phone line is in and working. Will be ordering broadband tomorrow - I hope it doesn't take to long, because I'm now using a pay-per-minute dialup service. That means that I won't be about much, because it could get very expensive. One unfortunate side effect of using a dialup service is that, while I can now receive emails, I can't send the darned things! I just get a weird error message. Tried adjusting the mail account settings to no avail.

Had my lunch today on the balcony. Nice! :)

About the weird error messages, its not unusual for one ISP to prevent you sending emails that are supposed to be using another ISPs outbound. Pretty common actually, still really annoying though.

One way around it is to use something like GMail or Hotmail or Yahoo in between, since they are web based.
