Photo taken by me – my probable new home in Preston

Preston, England

July 19, 2016 7:49pm CST

Today provided my chance to visit the flat I am now certain to move into in Ingol, Preston, Lancashire. We set off very early on the hottest day of the year so far. The flat is an unfurnished shell, with just a few minor repairs to address and bigger than my current room at my mum’s house. We explored local shops and the library too. I liked what I saw. I did more pub signs in Manchester in the afternoon, and discovered to my relief that my long overdue first half of my wages from the recent short-lived call centre job have finally been paid into my account, five days behind schedule.

I think this is a very positive move for you. Living in such negativity as you have been cannot possibly be good for you. I do hope it turns out a good thing.

Glad to hear that you've gotten some good news for a change. Weather here was hot and humid as well. Delayed heavy chores until close to evening.

My welfare advisory team should pay the rent so I will just have the electricity and phone bills to sort out @Jessicalynnt

@crazyhorseladycx the move will be in early August - set 8th August as a provisional date for now - it depends on a few friends being around to help me move things
