The apartment is much bigger (in overall terms) than home in the Uk so we've been able to visit the local Ikea and purchase a few (!!!) items to fill the place out. The local bus line to the store makes it a 10 minute journey but, of course, limits the size of the goodies one can buy. So the offer of a pick up from our neighbour, Jim, and his Volvo 4x4 meant that all the big stuff could be purchased in one fell swoop. Now, it's all been built we have a flat full of cardboard packaging and a relatively low number of "excess" screws, dowl plugs and plastic bits!
Connecting a phone line seemed an easy thing but having ordered one, getting it activated okay and then it working doesn't seem quite so straight forward. I can ring our number and get a ringing tone but not in our flat - it seems an electrician is needed to "connect" at our end. Oh well sometime later perhaps....
