Boring Update

I can't believe the school holidays are nearly over....only two weeks left and we've done and achieved absolutely nothing !!!

Still no pool, we haven't heard from the pool co. for months. I know it's WA (Wait Awhile) but even this is taking the mickey.

We have new tennents in the house behind us, they are skater boys and have already knocked a large hole out of our fence and their music starts up every night without fail at 10.30pm and goes on until at least 2.30am. So far our polite requests have gone on deaf ears so now I'm resorting to writing to the landlords. We are all shattered, the girls more so as their bedrooms back on directly to the house and it doesn't help that the weather is hot and sticky. So now I am wanting to move, I do love Halls Head but I want more space and no close neighbours (and we're on bigger blocks !) I have no idea how other people cope with all the houses jam packed in. Paul does love it here though so we're giving it a year to see if we can get the pool finished and the tenents ousted and then may just move into rented somewhere and let this house out which would make more sense than selling at the moment. Who knows, I may feel differently in a years time.

 On the plus side, Paul finally starts work tomorrow !! It has been a long time since he worked properly so I know he will struggle physically for a bit but at least we'll have regular money again. Interest rates keep rising and the mortgage is now much higher than we had in the UK which is scary and there are two credit cards on the go which need clearing but with regular income we should be able to start bringing it down again, fingers crossed.

Other than that there is no real news, we have been busy helping out Nic, Marc and the children, the Body Shop parties are starting up and I have a list as long as my arm of things to do with promoting it. In fact I have many 'to do lists' these days and am rarely completing any ticks !!! Still, Pauls birthday this week so we're off to Fremantle on the train on Sunday, wa hoo !!

Hi Chippy, we rent out our house and part of the lease is that they do not disturb the neighbours, I think you will find this the same for them, ring the realestate agent and then if they can't shut them up ring the police that should do it. We had a similar problem in Sydney years ago, moved onto 20 acres at Tahmoor that fixed it. Good Luck with it.
