Time marches on and things change. Earlier today I was informed that the lady and I were approved for an apartment (flat) together. On Wednesday the lease will be signed. By May 1st will be fully moved in. I've been here 12 years and while I like this place it would be too small for the both of us. Yes, we decided to “shack up”.

No, we aren't getting married.

One of the stipulations to me agreeing to this arrangement is that I keep and have space for my TE. Her response is that she would never expect me to give it up and can have any space required. She is a keeper gang. The rest of the apartment (flat) is to do as she pleases. So we are moving to the 2 bedroom as shown and that smaller bedroom will be exclusively my man cave. It's large enough to accommodate all my TE and then some. I'm actually looking forward to fitting it up but it's the moving of all my junk that's going to be the PITA. And needless to say any upcoming TE projects will now be put on hold.
The apartment (flat) is on the top floor so there's no one above us. And it's on the end of the complex so there's no one adjacent to the master bedroom. There is another apartment adjacent to the kitchen area and obviously an apartment below us. So it should be fairly quiet. I like quiet. That's the only thing that annoys me about this place. My neighbors are a bunch of inconsiderate assholes.
I will update this thread and post pictures as I move benches/equipment and start the long process of fitting up the lab.
