Well I left my present condo and moved downtown, I finally got the lease on the condo that I wanted as the owner finally gave up on the person she was holding it for. When I got to the building I then find out that there is still someone living there until lunchtime today (Tuesday) so I had to rent a room for one night, I am in this room at the moment and will finally move into a permanent condo later today................ well I hope so anyway.
Now that I'm downtown it is so much better in one way, that is that I am now so near to Greenbelt which is like living in the best part of the west end of London, all the best malls, cinemas, nice bars and restaurents. I had a wonderful meal tonight in a beautiful Italian restaurent, the meal with a bottle of australian merlot cost £17 which is very expensive for here.
It is also a very safe area to walk around in the evening as there are so many armed guards everywhere.
I will still pop back sometimes to where I used to live as there is so much happening there, I have friends there and it is a good place to hang out late at night just watching the world go by.
I will feel more settled once I move into this condo later today.

Dear gerry, lucky you a nice place to live and a bottle of red wine! We are getting withdrawal symptoms.. have not had a nice glass of red for over a month. We need to find someone with a liquor licence. Hope you will be safe and happy in your new pad
Love the Amins

Hi Ruth, yes a bit tricky over there with the old alcohol !! It was nice to put my feet up and open a bottle of Australian red at home last night.... just thought I'd rub it in !! ;-))
Hope you are all well and keep visiting the site.
Love to all the Amins x
