No news from this side. We're in waiting mode now. Selling the houses is our main focus now. That said, in two days it will be KIM'S BIRTHDAY ! I'll keep it a mystery how old she's getting. She's not too fussed about the whole birthday thing, and neither am I, so we decided to have a nice Bifteki in our favorite restaurant. I actually managed to reproduce a fairly good copy of the Bifteki they make, but Bifteki 2.0 doesn't taste as good as Bifteki 1.0 (yet!). I used too much mint and not enough parsley. I'm sure next time Bif2.0 will be better !
As present for her birthday she opted to combine her birthday and her Xmas gifts and I'll give her a new lens for her Nikon D200. But first we need to go to Australia, no point in buying things over here when we'll move anyway.
The stockmarkets today took a big plunge, and the ASX didn't get spared. This gives us hope that the houseprices in Australia will soon come under pressure. A good old forex crisis with the Australian dollar should give us a double whammy : A higher exchange rate for our Euro's , and lower houseprices once we settle in Australia. If houseprices haven't plunged when we get there we'll keep renting until they do : They have an unmanageable position up in Australia with houseprices : My bet is they're set for 40% nosedive.
