Happy with Brum move

So far I am happy with our move back to Birmingham since I have many family and friends here. Halal food and restaurants are in abundance so no problems there – apart from gaining more weight. There are many sheesha places for me to hang around so I can play cards and continue our usual Arab arguments of world domination plus the rent and grocery shopping is cheaper too woo-hoo

My daughter is getting more exposure to the family as well and vice-versa, so it’s all good and ofcourse it wouldn’t be complete if the missus wasn’t enjoying herself too.

I do miss Andover in parts though. It was quieter so you had more time to yourself to think, read books and workout. Yes I was leading a healthier lifestyle over there but I suppose you can’t get everything in life.

If it wasn’t for current financial climate and unstable housing market I think I would’ve looked more seriously to buy a property but for now I am better of renting and waiting for the right moment.
