so far away from home!

hey peoples!!! sorry its been so long since the last update but murrae managed to bugger nats internet connection so we have all been internet cold turkey! we have a house. its not big cos the area we went for is a bit posh and very very expensive!!!!! its nice tho. no pool i'm afraid just a very small garden. theres a bowling club right across the road and its 5 mins walk from scarborough beach. the area is called doubleview, think its cos at one time there were views of both the ocean and the city. dont worry we have bought a sofa bed for when visitors come over!!! its supposed to be winter but during the day its like a normal summers day in aberdeen. it bloody cold at night tho, last night it went down to 1 degrees!!!!!! now i know thats not as cold as we have experienced before but when none of the houses have heating in them its bloody bloody cold!!!! almost heart attack when you first climb into bed!!!!! michael has found some work, little jobbies just to start him off!! we have met some people from aberdeen, michaels friend grahams wifes sister! (sorry long winded!) and her family and another guy from torry!!! we all met up on sunday at kings park for a picnic, it was nice to meet and talk to other people who have made the move. we were so obviously the british people, kids had on shorts and t shirts and me with the strappy top and skirt! all the locals were going around with jumpers and scarfs on!!!!!!!!!! oh and the fact that murrae and stevi are completely milk bottle white!!!!! well better go folkies, off to find a car today. michael wants an 7/8 seater van type thing so that when you come over dad he can drive us all around!!!!! knew that he was a keeper!!!!! speak soon, love and miss you all.
