Renting and the zoo

Well we have got a place to rent in Berkhamsted now and hope to move in 7th June and we complete on this one 9th June so it gives us the 8th to clean. We have signed up for 6 months but hopefully if our new house moves quicker then we can get it rented out so we dont lose out. Gone for a house like our current one ! 2 bed cottage with garden and it means that we can store our BBQ etc. in it so bit better then a flat BUT not as easy to re-rent.

Went to London Zoo today and had a really good day with our friends and their son. Managed to get a voucher off the web for 2 for 1 (http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk/) think it ends soon and is linked to rail travel. We drove but I just showed them my oyster card and no worries. Talking of driving there, They charged £1.20 per hour outide the zoo BUT here is a tip, as it is a bank holiday a single yellow is OK to park on so if you drive just out of the park ring road you can park for free ! So I saved over £20 in total BUT managed to spend most of that on some snacks ! Price were really high i.e. Tuna roll was £3.50, a small pasta salad was almost 4 quid, Soup £4 etc. etc. best deal was my rollover hot dog and drink for £4.

Will post some photos later.
