    Enjoy your new home. Sorry about the break in internet access, as I'm another one that rarely watches TV, so understand that's difficult. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.

    I'm very glad to hear @rubin16 you must be so excited! Being without the internet for a while will be a challenge for sure, but it's only temporary and I'm sure will be worth the wait.

    Perhaps you could occupy yourself with books, if you like reading? Or maybe crafts, or games? What's something you've always wanted to try but haven't had the time to? :)

    Not really thought about that, I struggle to read books as I struggle to concentrate on things so I end up reading the same page over and over again as I don't process the information. I can listen to audiobooks though and do sometimes. One thing i'm really looking forward to is learning to cook and having my own kitchen, so going to try get some shopping in and cook myself a nice hearty meal.

    Thanks, and thanks everyone for their comments. I have officially moved into my new home and settling in. I also discovered a way for me to have internet for a week, I'm using BT's Free Wifi with a VPN to stay safe. The speeds seem fairly decent too and can still play my games on my computer.
