We went to the bush market and the town parade this morning. It was fun! There were quite a few stalls and good variety too. Phill and I got a sausage sandwich cooked by the local rotary club which was yummy. I also had a cappuccino which smelt really good but didn't taste that great. It was too bitter for me.
Phill and I also went to a local furniture shop to speak to a sales representative from Sealy (brand name) about what to look out for when we buy a mattress. We had initially set our eyes on a Sleepmaker branded mattress but after listening to the sales representative and cos we want our mattress to last as long as possible, we decided to go home and do our sums on a more expensive mattress than we had planned to buy.
In the afternoon, we went back to my in laws place to retrieve more stuff and met our family friends, Joan and George, there too. We only stayed for a while cos we had to head home before 3pm.
My colleague, Lynn, and her husband, Steve, were lending us their lounge suite. They moved it in and boy, did it make a difference to the place. It looked so much more homely and decent where previously, it looked quite pitiful. We were very grateful. And we did the tour of the house for them. They thought the house was well set out and the location was good and quiet.
Later, Joan and George also came with the coffee table which they helped us move from my in-laws' place. And they stayed and talked to us for abit, which was nice. We did the grand tour with them too and they liked our place.
My in-laws came later and we had a fish and chips dinner. It was yum!
What a busy day it's been and I was still sick, snuffly and a sore throat - yikes!
And Phill and I still feel like we're staying in a strange house, like as if it belonged to someone else. Well, it does since we're renting from the owners but I suppose it takes time to make it our own place.
Look at our empty fridge - haha!
