I also have no ADSL because the phone company fucked up too. I am really losing patience with shitty incompetent customer service operators. Apparently i am both the previous tenant AND the new tenant in this apartment. They have called me to request my permission to disconnect my newly-connected phone line so that the new tenant (also me) can have their line connected. Fucking morons. I want my internet back :-(
But OH EM GEE this place r0x. Aside from having a Subway and KFC about 30 seconds walk from the front door, there is one of the premier restaurant streets in Melbourne just a few minutes walk away. The apartment is nicely renovated and we have a bigass patio/balcony type thing. The whole building is red brick and kinda old and cute. Gas stove. No mould on the ceiling in the bathroom. Fuck yeah.
Things i will miss about South Yarra:
- having the Botanical Gardens and Faulkner Park a couple minutes walk from home
- getting to see Ferraris and Maseratis and Lamborghinis every day
- being walking distance from the Commercial Rd gay district
Things i will NOT miss about South Yarra:
- having to walk through a bar full of uppity wine ponces to buy beer
- the condescending stuck-up pricks at Domain Rd post office
- the corner store whose fridge doesn't work
