Housing (pronounced "house-ing")

[gemfyre]

Well we're getting more and more set up and organised, still a bunch of stuff to get from my place and a few things to buy, but we're okay for now. After spending about $300 yesterday on cleaning products, small household needs and groceries. We'll let you all know when the housewarming is, but if you wanna visit just give me or Matt a bell on the mobile (we're still wrangling with Telstra to get connected, the guy was meant to come this morning but didn't, so we wasted the morning when we could have been doing something useful).

Oh, and if anyone has loads of oranges they want to get rid of or knows where we can cheap ones in bulk, let me know. ;)

At least I don't feel as sick today as I did yesterday. Still not 100% but at least perky.

Oranges, eh? You could try freecycle (good for setting up house, too) there's often fruit and stuff.

You don't need a microwave, do you? I've got an old one I can't seem to give away.

They have freecycle in Australia? Cool. I need a large table ASAP. And many other things would be useful.

Matt got given $200 for Christmas to buy a brand spanking new microwave, so we have one now, and damn it looks good in the microwave nook above the (teeny tiny) oven.

They do indeed. 'freecycleperth' is the group name, over at yahoogroups.

no oranges, they ran out a while ago, but we have a lemon tree and too many lemons and no one wants them =((((

We have a lemon tree! And a plum tree.

Where are you, lemons could be useful anyway, our tree isn't awfully prolific at the moment due to the bore not working - thus no water.
