Moving on up...

After exactly a year in our last place we've moved. We're a little further out of town in a fancy pants fully furnished 3 level apartment. If I remember right, fully furnished is the norm in England but it's pretty rare over here. On the plus side it's got everything we need, on the down side we aren't able to give it our own unique style.

That said, this was the style at our old place so maybe that's a good thing...

This is the sort of furnishings we now have to live with...

To celebrate our new place a night out was in order. Casey Eden was back in town so myself, Rob and Casey devised a Shortland Street drinking game for the beers and tequila we had before heading out.

The night had a twist - Rob lost a sweepstake during the cricket world cup. One of his teams, Ireland, scored the lowest team total in the tournament so as part of the punishment he had to go out in the national costume of that country.

As we all know, a Leprechaun outfit is Ireland's national dress. Here is Rob and Casey in an apt cricket pose...
