Not many as far as the Adventure goes: I rang the actual seller of our unit this morning, turns out he is not in a huge rush of any kind, which is great! Made me feel much less stressed. We're seeing another bank guy with my parents on Wednesday, this is the local Bendigo Bank that we currently bank with, and who were very apologetic about knocking back our loan originally and might do us a good deal now that we've got my parents involved.

However, in other news: Elicia has gone to Melbourne to do a massage course (advanced NST) until Wednesday this week, leaving me at home alone. This will be the longest we've ever been apart. She left yesterday morning and last night I couldn't sleep very well... I miss her. Pathetic, I know, but when she's not here the house is so quiet and dull.

I finished The Magus though - what a book! I found it totally compelling, it gains your trust and then rips it out from under you, not a pleasant experience but intrigueing, powerful and emotional. Don't read it if you like happy stories, or even sad stories where everything makes sense. Read it if you want to think "What? He's really - oh!", not once but after every few chapters!
