London, we are here to stay!

It is all go go go now! Because Mas and I have both landed jobs this week!! WOOHOO!!! =))

The recruitment agents asked why I did not sound happy when he told me the good news, it is because all these things were processing in my head all at once:

1/. Where should we live? (Both of us are going to work in the city, so we can live anywhere, should we stay west, go north, maybe north west???)

2/. How much can we afford? Should we budget more on rent or travels or save as much as possible?

3/. How would I get to work if the tube staff go on with strike next week? (The latest news is the potential tube staff strike which was supposed to happen next Monday to Wednesday is now suspended! Yeah!!)

4/. What am I going to wear on my first day????!!! (This is very very important, because first impressions last... arrr, a lot of ironing to do!!)

Anyway, so it is all very exciting now, but flat hunting has been very tiring. We saw 5 flats within 4 hours. It does not sound too bad when you have it in writing, however, when you are in a car with an agent who thinks he is a race car driver AND does not know the way, after the third 3-point turn, I was ready to throw up. (By the way, the flats range from "NO WAY" to "Hmm... No", so no luck there - Yet)

Tomorrow, we are going to see 3 more flats in the North of London, hopefully we will have better luck with the agent's driving and the quality of the flats this time.
