so, whinging aside, what's the rub in Orangeland?

Moved into the new house on Saturday. have failed to unpack anything apart from the cookbooks and my bedroom entertainments. (oi! dirty! I mean my seperate system, cds, vinyl, dvd player and telly) I got a bit wrapped up in playing with my records and even inflicted abba and tangerine dream on poor daevid :) I did try and make up for it by playing Jordan Minnesota at him but I'm not sure the shouts of "fuck daddy" really helped wash away the swedes.

Never realised how many clothes I have given I wear the same old shit again and again. 3 really big boxes, 3 drawers, 2 holdalls and a laundry basket full. plus the socks, pants, and tights bags, the pile I chucked and the bag I've put to one side for the multiblack goth swap.

The new house feels nice - my new room is over half as big again as the old one and I'm attempting to contain my computer clutter in a walk in cupboard (henceforth known as orange's caven in homage to oracle's caven) off the spare room (henceforth known as the ginger suite due to eddy virtually living there) The boiler isn't working so no heating or hot water but a chap should be in looking at it today. the kitchen is fine (apart from the bloody electric cooker but I'm vaguely considering other options there) and it's really nice having one on the same floor as the living room - it feels easier to pop into and cook/clean. could do with a table or some more storage or something, and a the booze cupboard needs furnishing correctly. the back alley is perfect for fuzzy's bike as it's locked at the top and he can make his bike invisible behind the dustbins. living room is *much* smaller than the old one and quite cramped but I'm working on cosy :) bathroom is utterly spartan and needs a mirror, some towel storage and some shelving. thankfully the shower is electric so we can use that despite the boiler ills.

am kinda failing to unpack at the mo as the living room needs tweaking and some shelves putting up - I was kinda hoping to get stuff done this weekend but the old house is going to eat my time instead. I need a trip to ikea sometime next week if anyone has a decent sized car and would like to join me (there will be petrol money! woo!) - they're open til 10! I need to get the 4*4 version of the cupboard we have in the club's cloakroom for my bedroom plus a whole host of other shite for the house. (no more tupperware! no more saucepans!)
