Back to the old routine

So, it's been a week. I've been at work; working.

I have to get out of bed at 7am which is a slight shock to the system after 3 months of having a lie-in. Having to get on the train or bus to work and be a commuter again is also tiresome. But get this. At home, travel to work would cost me around £40 a week - translation just under $100. Here, I can buy a weekly ticket for $35. Hello bargain transport!! I struggle with the whole extornionate prices for transport in London and even more so when every other major city in the entire world manages to offere transport at half the price of less.

But anyway, flat hunting has continued. I saw some at the weekend and they were much improved on Thursday's visit. I saw a pretty nice flat in Potts Point and I'm going to submit a rental application. Mind you from everything I've heard about finding somewhere to rent in Sydney is notoriously difficult. Chances are, even if I submit an application on Monday it will be too late.....

Anyway, must go and get ready, the downside of working is not being able to go to the beach at the drop of a hat.....
