Fairy Meadow?
Mangerton is such an ugly word. With other suburbs in Wollongong having names such as Fairy Meadow and Figtree, Mangerton is a pretty unappealing name for a place to live. But, really it’s a lovely area.
Which is just as well, since we’re moving there on the 12th of February.
Yes, we were offered the Mangerton house. And the Figtree place, too. But, they wanted us in there too soon. We were pleased as punch today, after two harrowing inspections that turned out to be a waste of time, to be called by the real estate agent and told our application was accepted.
We are going to have a dishwasher. Is that not incredible?
It is to me… I detest washing the dishes, at least during summer where I am drenched with sweat by the end.
On the date we sign the lease, I will be able to tick off #69 on my 101 things list.
Best of all, we’re going to have more space… and a dining room. And we get to take a month to pack up rather than a week.
Whoop!
Mangerton is lovely!
I liveth there.
I think we used to work at the same woolwanks in hellharbour.
