My new home!

Garden area with fish pond
View from the roof top terrace
Living room with cable television!
Here are some photos of my new home. I moved in today with the help of one of my colleagues. I really love it. It is a 2 storey building in a little garden area. It is gated and a security guard lives in the small house by the gate. The Trust's office is on the ground floor and that is also where my kitchen is (which is used by everyone during the working day). Then on the first floor there are 2 double bed-rooms (my room has an en-suite although it seems pretty grotty compared to the main bathroom so don't know if I will really use it). There is also a nice big lounge. With wireless internet so I'm skypable!
It's about 6.15pm at the moment and I'm feeling a bit claustrophobic. The guard came in to show me all the security features about an hour ago and in the process closed all the windows, shut the curtains and encouraged me to lock myself in for the night which I have done. So while it's still light and bright outside I am in the living room with the light and fan on! And although I have been reassured that it is a very safe area there are an awful lot of locks and I have to put a great big wooden bar across the front door each night.

  1. Very swanky, not the shack you led me to believe you would be living in!
