Two Photos
It is of course winter here and it is very chilly, even during midday, which occurs at about 11am here. Sundown is at 4.30 or so. I am at the moment liking this and the feeling one gets of having a long evening spent being amazed at the high quality of the tv advertisements here (especially after KL, but even compared to Melb). Furthermore, there is so much high-quality tv on the various BBCs, and good newspapers to browse.
The houses are all very quaint and appropriate and somehow or other reek of Englishness. But so far, its a pleasant aroma.
Generally, I'm feeling charmed by Canterbury and expect that I'll enjoy my year here. However, it may well be like the situation where the person who you recently have met and liked turns out to be someone you don't like so much, whereas the person you didn't take to at first turns out to be the person you take a shine to. Therefore, I provisionally very much.
