Got back yesterday evening, through the airport very quickly. The doors opened at 7pm and even with getting cash along the way we had our bags off the belt and were in the duty free at 7:15pm. I now have some ‘stock’ on hand so there will be some pleasant evenings on the terrace at the new place. With the apartment move happening while I was away it was quite strange to be leaving one ‘home’ and returning to another. The new place is pretty chaotic with boxes everywhere but at least it’s in much better condition than when we moved into Chancery Court. C’s folks are helping out again and have done a huge amount so it’s a lot less stressful than last time, for me anyway.
Starhub reception for the mobiles isn’t great which makes me wonder what the wireless coverage is going to be like in the house. There are some plastic cable runs/tracks/conduit (whatever those 1 inch plastic rails are called) on the first two floors which is tempting me to run ethernet around the house and use cheap access points on the ground and top floor for the wireless access. Unfortunately I don’t see a convenient way to run ethernet to the room on the top floor, which will be where I keep my ‘play’ machines, without it being unsightly.
