Arrived in Scotland

Last night was my first sleeping in my flat on the top floors in an Aberdonian housing development; my first day here is warm and sunny, most agreeable. In the distance, I see the North Sea. Things have gone roughly to plan, at least enough so, though costing money, and so many small to-do's now. I did a bunch of shopping yesterday at an Asda Superstore, today I can try to get things straighter and put away better and make sure the various things around the flat work and report those that have issues.

I don't have a car yet but a fair bit is quite walkable from here, I am near the city centre with its Victorian granite buildings. A lot can be found less than two miles away. In coming days, I start my new job, which will be demanding, so I should make the most of the time I have now. I've been going back and forth on buying a car, especially given that current trends probably warrant a fairly new hybrid which costs more up front, and I may be spending many weeks this year working from Asia, but I think the convenience would be worth it. Among other things, I want to continue my current history of insurance coverage without claims.
