We returned yesterday from a great 12 night Papeete to Lautoka cruise on Norwegian Spirit. Booked last August through Cruiseaway. Flights, two nights pre and post cruise hotel in balcony guarantee for $8600 each.
This is a teaser because in the last six weeks a lot has happened and the actual report most likely isn't going to get posted in the next week or so.
We decided to consolidate. We'd get rid of both our investment property and our own apartment. It was time to move to somewhere quieter, away from the screaming girls of All Hallows school and the boys with small d***ks and fat exhausts who've taken over the streets of the city.
Our tenants made an offer on the apartment in New Farm before it was officially listed and we had an offer on our own place after the first open. We held off on accepting as we needed to find a place either to rent, our buy.
On the morning of the budget the initial sale offer was increased and we accepted. In the same hour our offer on an apartment in West End was accepted. Problem - the sale would compete while we were in French Polynesia and the purchase not until later in the week after we get back, Thursday this week in fact.
bAlt is still working so I booked a storage unit and over the course of the next couple of weeks packed and moved everything packable into it. On the Thursday before we flew out the movers came for the big stuff, and we moved into the Holiday Inn Express for three nights until we flew out.
I'm writing this from Art House Apartments at South Brisbane. This morning it's pre-settlement inspection. Friday, the movers are back, then we'll get everything out of self storage over the weekend.
After unpacking I'll get to this report, and maybe the one of our great little trip to Winton and Longreach.
Stay tuned.
