An email from
Tanya on Wednesday 4th May 2005
"This
is Ella and Lesley's place
Ella is going to Oz so I can have her bed sharing with Lesley
I move in on Friday 20th/Saturday 21st May
And on the way to work I will be riding past Buckingham Palace
- and maybe Big Ben
How cute is the building!!
It is just in the middle of nowhere
And it has Sky TV - I am loving that!!
I am looking forward to the move to the pub
It will be nice to hang out with Lesley and then with Ella too
when she gets back from Oz
and I become the house-dosser!!"

"I
am going to take most of my stuff to The Stag on Saturday
and then move over on Sunday"
From Tanya on Monday
23rd May 2005
"Saturday
- I cleaned at Kaz's and took a load to Lesley's
Sunday - took the last load over to Lesley's
Oh, and Lesley cooked a really good dinner - for me - living with
a chef is good!"
From Tanya
on Thursday 26th May 2005
"About
living in The Stag - I haven't been home before 11.00pm yet since
I moved in
- so haven't been around much - I haven't actually been in the
pub yet!!
There is noise but it is just muffled
- most of the noise is street noise which I had a Castlenau anyway
being on a main road
so it is fine
Sunday night we could hear music but it could just as well have
been neighbours as the pub
so I haven't noticed it too much yet"
From Tanya
on Thursday 9th June 2005
"We
are going to Brighton Beach on Saturday
It is meant to be eighteen degrees but sunny so no clouds to steal
the heat
We are aiming to get there at 11.15am on the train and go straight
to the Pier for fish and chips!!
Lesley and I are going to get up early and watch the Lions v NZ
Maoris Rugby Union match
- she's a Kiwi
I must say its pretty awesome that the pub manager, Ken, is letting
us go into the pub
at 8.00am to watch the game on Sky TV
We get the whole pub to ourselves!!"
......and again on
Saturday 11th June 2005
"Saturday was Lesely's birthday
We got up early so she could watch the NZ Maori's play the Lions
in the Rugby Union
It is a bit odd being in a pub in our pj's drinking coffee at
8.00am but we did anyway!!"
