Green, Green Grass of ... Wales

There's still so much I haven't mentioned thus far - on our first day here we had to do an expansive grocery shop, ranging from toilet paper to sugar, veggies and pillows, all while bearing in mind we had no fridge. I was so happy to find my greatly-missed Bovril - that yellow stuff on my bread is a buttery spread we bought under the illusion that it was butter - we'd read through (and rejected) all spread ingredients in plastic tubs, and settled on this one, wrapped as a block in foil, just like the salted butter next to it. By this time we were weary and worn out from reading labels, and made a mistake.

The sellers very sweetly brought their parent's dining table and chairs out of storage and left it here for us - it has made life much more comfortable. Of course, they also left table linens mats, and the dressers to store them in.

We picked up a 'tub' chair with a washable cover that was advertised as free a few roads away from us. It's a lot more comfy than a dining chair.

I'm happy to finally have a double sink, with a built-in drainer, as we are used to. The plug for the sink is attached by a chain - perfection.

Dale had ordered a Starlink Internet kit before we arrived, so he set it up for us on the first day here - lucky us!
