Yeah, I know, I know.
A problem is just an exciting opportunity in disguise. Sending 2 off to college and moving 3 overseas has provided us with many.....opportunities.
PROBLEM: Music. Shall we take all zillion CDs? Ah, no. iTunes? Sorry, no cloud yet. Squeezebox Hard Disc? Nope.
OPPORTUNITY: Spotify. Europe's Pandora. Let them sell you here.
"Spotify is so good"
- Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder of Facebook
Well then! We jumped the queue, signed up for Spotify Unlimited and, Bob's your uncle, in 90 seconds we had Dick's Picks in the kitchen whilst completing the taxes.
PROBLEM: Car. We own 4 here. And over there the steering wheel is misplaced. And they have a hefty CO2 tax on car ownership.
Our application was approved this morning. The green pegs on this map show the location of available cars right now.
We live at the corner of the A147 Queens Rd and the A11 Newmarket Rd, so 3 cars are available within walking distance. Cost is £3.54/ hr ($5.70). Nifty.
Very small additional problem: we had to send them our original NC licenses so right now we are driving around without.
PROBLEM: No shredder.
OPPORTUNITY: FIRE!
Onwards!
