So we finally moved all our stuff to the UK, sort of. Some stuff will have to wait till January, but after that, we’re all set!

Due to the little fire in the Eurotunnel, we did have a lot of problems traveling between Belgium and our new home. Elke ended up taking a plane at one point, we took a ferry while moving and we almost had security called on us when traveling back to the UK for the last time using the Eurostar.

Yes I might have been pissed off and shouting at the lady behind the counter, but it’s not my fault she was incompetent ;) The Eurostar service during their little “crisis” was the worst I’ve ever seen (since when is it okay to be rude to every single customer?) and I’m pretty sure they’ve lost a huge amount of customers. I personally hope (and I’m usually not like this but this went too far) that they fire some folks at the Belgian side of the bloody tunnel.

Anyhoo! Except for that little adventure, all is well in the UK. Nottingham is treating me well, and so is my new job at Monumental Games. We just moved offices this week, where we finally have space to park our bicycle (inside)! So, funny enough, this Monday, while Belgium was suffering under yet another train strike causing hours of traffic jams, I did my shortest commute ever! Six minutes! 6! This is luxury! :D

Speaking of luxury, since this country still has you paying tv taxes (like our friends in the southern part of Belgium) even when you don’t really watch tv, we decided to get some decent tv distribution and went for Sky! Our first dish :D

800+ channels, some in HD, 5.1 surround. Wonderful but very exhausting. Sometimes takes up to an hour before you know what to finally watch ;)

On the gaming front, I’ve tried Infinite Undiscovery, the Squeenix RPG on 360, and WipEout HD on PS3. Both nice games but I find myself logging into… wait for it… no, not WoW but Battlefield: Bad Company on PS3. WoW will have to wait till the expansion hits, which is soon …

Lots happened these few months, people visited us, we went places, etc etc. There are pictures and videos but they still haven’t moved to the pc hence haven’t been edited/uploaded.

Soon though! I promise. As always…
