Coldest night in Perth - ever!

It's been a few weeks since my last blog, and feeling guilty that I haven't updated anything for a while.
So what's been happening with me?

So, the first exciting news is that we've moved into an apartment, so we're no longer staying in a hotel room.
Hmm - quite a few stories to tell already...

The first night we moved in happened to the coldest night in Perth ever recorded. And what did we have with us? An inflatable bed, 2 blankets and a duvet. Nothing else. We only found out as we were leaving the hotel that our goods were still in the UK  - put this in context - since the day the removalists came to pack our goods, we had managed to visit 4 European countries, travelled 24 hrs to Perth, been to several job interviews in WA, and our goods had not even left the shores of England - unbelivable!

So, back to the coldest night ever recorded in Perth, this also happened to the day we moved into our rented apartment with no bed, no sofa, no fridge freezer or washing machine, no heating - you got it, there was no ambiant heat from anything else to keep us warm.

To add to this, we were not aware that this was going to a cold night, so we set the inflatable bed up in the biggest (therefore coldest) room in the flat - the living room, thinking how lovely it would be to sleep in the room with the centre of activity is.

On top of that, we placed the inflatable bed close to the window/balcony, so we can have a view. And on top of that, we thought we'd leave the curtains open so we can wake up to a lovely view in the morning.

Well, turned out to the coldest room and the coldest spot in the apartment! Just our luck!
