One more day, one more week

So, they asked Jon in a round about way for an extension -- something along the lines of, 'is it absolutely critical that we give you answer by July 1?. Oh dear, oh dear. Jon has given them another week, which at least allows him to go and do what he has to do and doesn't leave it so late for me.
We bought a sofa yesterday. It's a second-hand one from a young British couple who both work in re-insurance and are leaving the island. We got a pretty good deal, getting a sofa, two coffee tables, a hairdryer and some timers to work with lamps etc, a CD-radio alarm clock and a framed poster for $650. They are all really good quality. Now we just need a bed! There's a great website here called e-moo, where people advertise things they qant to sell, but the beds always seem to go so quickly.
I think there is a rat on our roof. I was lying in bed this morning and heard some rather load scratching. It was a bit worrying, but once I realised it wasn't coming from inside, i was a bit happier.
We found a short-cut last night down to the railway track, which is a path running from one side of the island to the other that used to be home to the old railway before they foolishly got rid of it (Bermuda has no railway now and massive transport problems). Anyway, as it's closed to cars and only used by pedestrians, bikes and motorbikes, it's great for walking and jogging along. I can get through a little path to the track, which runs along the sea, and went for a little jog along there this morning.
Bean was extremely active at around 5.30, more than usual, but I think the jog had a calming effect.
No more news at the moment. I'll keep you posted. The apartment is looking good. The floors are nearly sanded and it's almost ready.
Love to you all
Han
