Yep, seem far better adjusted to the time zone now, got up with the alarm at 8, had a shower (realised that all I had got in the supermarket was shampoo – no soap or face wash!) and off into the central business district to the bank for our appointment for opening the accounts. We now have banking set up, and have applied for a credit card, to build up our credit history. We do indeed have *no* credit history here – which is good! But … means we cant get a car loan, so have to get an old one, still looking for that ford capri 😉
So far we have seen The Fenian Pub, and coon brand cheese, there is also “The Coliseum” – the christian gym. I can only assume that they get people fit by putting them on a treadmill, and getting a lion to run behind them!
We have also seen drive through offsales. We had heard about them – and apparently they are also common in the US, but its such a weird concept!
