One month...

It has been one month since we arrived here at Notts...

Alhamdulillah, we have managed to almost 99% settled down..we got a house, car, Zharfan enrolled to school, me started my study proper...except for one more thing...hubby is still looking for a part-time job here. Life is not as easy as in Msia where hubby got monthly income...hoping that hubby gonna start working soon, Insya Allah..

anyway, we do love staying here...for UK is pretty safer place to live, and groceries shopping is a lot cheaper compared to Msia...but on the other side, services are quite expensive here, like for a car to be repaired it is very2 expensive..and here we got to pay tv licence annually, which costs around GBP 150, and the car insurance is more expensive than the car price itself..plus the gas/heater bill which is not cheap...phew..

anyway we do love car boot sale here...something that we can't find in Malaysia..babies/kids toys are plentiful and cheap of course, household deco/souveniers...etc

and here in UK, the things at ebay.co.uk is very wide range to choose from, and there's free stuff to collect at freecycle too!!

and me love Mothercare as well, the outlet is sooo big and spacious, variety of items to choose from for lil ones!! we have yet to 'visit' IKEA notts branch yet..gonna do that soon :p

staying in UK makes me a better housewife- in terms of cooking...i do cook everyday now..:p well, eating out is also possible here, but of course not all the times like we used to do in Msia ;)
