Awww Rawky your so far away......and where's ya gold tie, its not it the tie compartment....

Hi Rawky, it's good to hear from you.

It may be compact and bijou, but there is loads of cupboard space.

I can't see you rustling up a sunday roast on your little hob, however I'm sure you could manage some scrambled eggs.

I hope you have settled in well and are enjoying yourself.

Glad you are settling in Rawky, no gold ties  You wont be doing much cooking then ? Hope all goes well for you 

Awwwwww - looks fabulous. all very exciting - it's nice to be able to see what it's all like where you are  Hope it's all going well on the teaching front - are the kids nice?

Rawky, what a lovely thing to do - i bet your Dad and family have watched it over and over.

I love the view from the window. 

Good luck

Looks great Rawks. So nice of you to keep us informed, hope the move goes well, don't forget to show us the new place will you. Oh and I love the background music to your video.

ohhh, compact and bijou!  Was the pianist hiding in one of the storage areas ?  

Looks really nice Rawky, hope you're enjoying it! 

Great to see where you are.....I remember when I moved to London from peaceful Welsh countryside and lived right by a hospital....it took a while to adjust to sleeping amidst constant traffic and ambulance sirens but adjust I did and found I couldnt sleep without them after a while.

Thanks for sharing your video, really interesting....get a wok for your burner and you can cook up anything in that.

Seen a lot worse Rawks  

What's eating out like and the cost of living?

I enjoyed your vid the apt may be small but it's perfectly formed with so many handy extras and good storage areas, storage is so important so as not to be surrounded by clutter hope you continue to enjoy your experience that will give you lots of good memories to keep

Hello

I have notes and questions on your video 

• The apartment looks very efficient
• WHERE ARE YOUR PANTS?
• Is that a teddy on your bed?

Enjoy it, you're currently living my DREAAAAAMMMM,....

I love your video..    (but the music was appalling)

you sound a little homesick     hang in there...  it will pass

and

my daughter loves that you have a teddy on your pillow 

I really enjoyed that Rawky ,you are so not what I thought you would look like.That's a great little apartment and smart use of space.I cant believe you will be moving to a smaller apartment as the one you are in is small.

Get out and buy some food for the fridge!Take care.

I stayed til the end!  I particularly appreciated the demo of the kitchen faucet. 

A few notes/questions:

1. I would need a whole 'nother shoe cupboard. 

2. I see you have a NY Yankees hat.  Remind me to send you a Seattle Mariners hat to replace it.

2. Can the sofa not be moved to that blank wall, thereby freeing up the storage it's blocking?

and finally, I think a video from school would be next, right, all? 

lovely to here from you  

I stayed to the end - loved the vid 

love that you took the cards and teddy 

fill that fridge and get a toaster and saucepan - at least then you can cook snacky things when you cant be bothered eating out 

That was brilliant Rawky, I turned the News off for this. I'm so glad you don't sound like a Plymouth chav. 

(joking)

He'll be doing A House In The Country in one year.

Well Rawky you certainly aren't short on cupboard space   it's actually not a bad apartment - has enough for your needs 

Hope you're enjoying yourself 

Brilliant Rawky...I stayed until the end too, I also agree with Lori about moving the couch onto the  empty wall  Hope it goes fantastically well for you and keep the updates coming  

AND... 

HOW MANY PAIRS OF SHOES????

emelda marcos eat ya heart out

Thanks for sharing your apartment with us Rawky! I look forward to the next one when you move at the end of September

I agree with Amythist's idea about getting a wok, you'll never go hungry, as long as you like noodles and stir-fry veggies!

Take care

You can make scrambled eggs in a wok 

Nice one Rawky 

great  rawky 

 Glad I'm not the only one to notice the lack of undiebums!

Can you get one of those all in one oven  thingys that can be bought here?  You can microwave, oven, grill and umm....I think that's it.  But combined with your 2 burners you'll be fine

I stayed to the end, and I accept your congratulations  

I love your dedicated hat and scarf cupboard  

Bit off topic (sorry Rawks - it was very interesting, but life moves at a pace)

Ducky - why is your avi a square of turf??

Now listen everyone - I swear when I posted this that ducky's avi was just grass. It was. She stuck that duck thing on afterwards.

Honest

You saw it Jen?

There's a duck in it too

Oh

I dunno what made me come back in here.... my ears must have been burning  

It WAS a square of turf (and my actual new lawn....the one I laid today )....then Ickle stuck the duck in there, cos my mum has threatened to buy me something similar to put in my new garden (she thinks she's doing something nice.... but I HATE painted garden ornaments!!! And I don't want it!!!   ) 

You can always keep it in a closet, and pop it out every time she's coming over?

The closet's getting a bit full Lori
