I could never get over the lomg dark of England. Earliest earliest earliest dark here is 5.15 and that's total midwinter. But your summers! Dark soooo late!!!! I wish we had daylight savings all year around here, I love the ectra light after work.

Your job aounds okay so far. Be lovely to have friends around.. might make your place feel more like home. Oh you definitely need fairy lights... I have them all year around. There's something infinitely cheery about them.
