Settling In
No backgammon news I'm afraid -Sean had to work late on Tuesday as it was the last day of the month. Still this will make us more determined to make it next week!
Sean's been on training this week so he's been in to Cabramatta as well at the Mount Druitt office where he is based. Cabramatta is slightly closer but takes just as long on the train (partly because the trains aren't very frequent). He's got a car now - it's a beast! It only just fits into our parking space in the car park here. I guess it is true that we will get used to big cars out here and when we come back to England we'll think they're all piddly. Sean hasn't tried driving to Cabramatta in case he gets lost, he's going to wait until he's back in his permanent office. At least his journey will be air-conditioned then, unlike the trains.
Yesterday I spoke to the lady who is going to arrange our home search. At the moment she is trying to get an idea of where we want to live but she may want us to go and look at flats at the weekend. Apparantly flats go very quickly once they come onto the market so we should be ready to pounce! I told her that we really like living here (although we would like to go and see other places) so she's going to contact them to find out if anything is available.
Andy's posted a comment so it can be done! I get an emailed copy of these but they don't seem to be very visible on the website. Maybe this a setting I can alter somewhere.
I still haven't manged to do anything exciting with photos. Maybe at the weekend...

Hi Zoe and Sean,
Glad to hear you're getting to grips with Sydney. Let me see; a flat laid on, a car already, starting to check out a more permanant home - all sounds like it's going well so far. As I thought it would.
But what about the food ? We've heard nothing about the food since your flight ! This is most unlike you Zoe !
I checked the Sydney Bg Club website and have found that we can keep a check on your results because they publish a ladder ! No excape ! We're watching yous.
Love,
Mike
