Moving

We've moved house, finally, and I've also moved technologically... we have a new Airport Express wireless network and I just bought a Macbook so as to take full advantage of it.  So I'm typing from the sofa, wire-free, hooked up to the internet... I know, this was only really "cool" about 10 years ago. But I got there eventually.

Anyway, beware! My every passing thought is now perilously close to being shared at any time, from any place! That can't be good.

As for the "real" move - well, the new house is gradually becoming liveable as things emerge from boxes and routines become established.  There have been a few bumps in the process - an unexpected lack of TV for the first week, a leaky roof - but  after the first week I'm starting to feel a bit more normal.

Despite our technical relocation to "suburbia", we have a pretty hassle free "commute" of a 5 minute walk, 23 minute bus ride, and 5 minute walk.   Because we're at the beginning of the bus route, there are plenty of seats (there are usually about 2 people on the bus when we get on, occasionally including the driver).  But this does all mean getting up a bit earlier, which is not so much fun with the Winter still hanging around. We're up before the sun and today in particular it's been decidedly cold.

Speaking of moving... we just watched the Season Finale of the recent V series, which was quite exciting, if all a bit wooden.  I seem to have ended up gripped despite myself.  But I remain puzzled by the fact that it is completely unclear what the Vs plan is.  I feel even devious aliens should have a more discernable agenda.  They just seem to have relocated their entire civilisation here to ... confuse us?
