It's been only two days since my last post, yet it is time for another update. My father, who joined me to Dundee for a couple of days left on Thursday morning, and that afternoon, Just moved in. So far, living together has been quite brilliant. Considering the fact that we have very little to do just yet, our days consist of chilling. Just has the occasional hockey practice and games now and then (my football will only start in a week and a half), and I have some working obligations for the coming week. Tonight I will be doing my first shift in the biggest club of the Union (recently voted as club of the year in Dundee), the Mono. Should be interesting. Also, I'm picking up my good friend Maurits from the trainstation in a hour, who decided to book a flight and come by already since this is his only holiday this year. He will be with us for 8 days. Tomorrow we got a visit planned to the football stadium with a few guys from my work, to hopefully see Dundee United completely slaughter Hibernians, yet when examining the quality in both squads that seems to be a mere utopia.
Also, Just and I found that the appartment was a little too spacious and pimpy to only share with the two of us, so we decided to adopt three extra housemates. Mitch, CJ and Hobie have found their way from the pet shop to a nice little red fishtank in the corner of our livingroom (hence the Baywatch names). We both have to admit that having goldfish has spiced up our appartment a little (I got them for Just's birthday), and seeing Just hug the tank right before we went to bed last night was indeed a truly emotional and heartbreaking experience.
Last Thursday I had my first staff party at DUSA (the Union), which was absolutely brilliant. Imagine a free BBQ, very fun people, pints for a pound and therefore a fulltime drinking experience from 17:30 until 03:00. The hangover was quite killing, but it was more than worth it! Also, the weather has been absolutely brilliant the last few days, culminating today in an almost clear blue sky, a blistering sun, and 26 degrees. Who said it would only rain here?
Pics of our appartment, our iFish (a white Apple sticker decorates the fishtank) and the city will soon follow...

Hey Leon! I really enjoyed baywatch as a youngster, so I am really glad you are honoring Mitch and the gang in this way. Good luck this year.
