Moving Pt2

Finally on Thursday two weeks ago we moved to mum's new place. We were supposed to move on the Wednesday nut the first removal's we got came in the afternoons and were too sissy boys and my mum likes to put it built like twigs and they said they couldn't do this and they were half drunk also they were like we cant do this we have to hit the road soon blah blah etc... so after about 5minutes of them checking what needed to be taken then i said if you can not do this then hit the road. :P

So after that mum called these other guys that came on Thursday @8am and moved everything by 4pm in the afternoon. and mum gave them $A600 thats including tip and everything was moved in.

This was the first time i saw the new place it is smaller and a lot colder and it does not have an elevator like the other place but not too many stairs either but i am moving soo as long as mum is happy with it its all good to me :)

So when we moved we expected the phone lines to be connected and everything because we had called the phone company which is also our isp and said why is the phone not connected and that was the start of a nine day ordeal with Telstra the Govt run phone company. On the 8th day it took mum to complain to a government body for them to take some action and come the next day to fix the phone line. Hence i was not happy with there service nor was my mum.

When the technician came it took him 15mins to do the job so we had to wait over a week to get a 15min job done. Shame on you Telstra.

After we had it up and running it took me about an hour to get all the connections up and running again for the computer and we had the net again and i had made sure our adsl was connected when the technician was over he said yes and i told him it better be cause i dont wanna call you guys again. So he was true to his word the net was connected and i had to connect the modem first and then the router.

So now i am back at mums place blogging and its been about 3 days we have a phone line and the net back. What annoys me is that I live in Australia and we are classified as a first world country and it takes 8 days for info structure to be installed shame i say shame :(

Now mum has gone out and we have TV issues so mum has gone to get an antenna and we will see if our digital box to work otherwise there is an issue with our digital SD box.

My next big move is around the 8th July to dads place as soon as i finish helping mum settle down in this cold fridge of a place.

Ciao for now
