I have been back in Hampshire over one month and got used to living with my partner Samuel again after so much time apart while I was working as a ranger in Norfolk.I have taken some photographs of my local surroundings for you to browse over the next few days as I add entries.

I have so far had two interviews for contracts but have not found a job yet.

I am not rushing on the ideal job hunt as we have been re-decorating our house and I have other projects such as some study to finish off. We just have to be careful with our pennies!

Our house has been back on the market since one week. We had 5 viewings but no offers yet. Still, this is very positive. It is hard to resist the temptation of viewing other properties we might buy which certainly would not be able to afford if we haven't sold our house. Now we have done more things to it like change the curtains and repaint the lounge/dining area I quite feel like staying in it for a bit longer anyway. Here is a picture of Riverside Park one mile from here.
