As Kozakura holds the door open I remark “Kozzy, I reckon you're a tad cheeky. You've been having a bit of a go at me.  And the ale was beaut, thanks.  It cleared some of the grit out.”<br/><br/>Stepping past her I check out the room.  It seems to be set up like a self-contained unit.  Comfy … flash but not gaudy.   Nothing airy fairy about it.  Comfortable looking lounge … a sideboard that might contain an entertainment centre.  Everything is neat, spacious, inviting, and restful.  I prowl about and discover a kitchen, dining room and a bed room with ensuite.  Off the lounge the sliding glass door leads to a balcony with views out to the sea.<br/><br/>This is a regular flat.  I open the cabinet and sure enough, there sits a sound system.  I fumble about for the on/off button and fortuitously manage to find it.  The soft strains of Pachabels Canon fill the room.<em>Nice, wonder what that music is?</em>In the kitchen, when I open a cabinet I discover row upon row of red wine.  Wines from around the globe.  Every country seems to be represented including Australia.  I recognize the Barrossa, Clare, Hunter Valley, and the Rutherglen amongst the collection.  Another cabinet reveals a massive walk in fridge.  This is filled with beer, white wines, and bubbly, all chilled to perfection, and like the reds they seems to have replicated all the wines regions.<br/><br/>I lift my eyebrows and let a slight grin settle on my face. “Well Kozzy, this is pretty flash.  I wasn't expecting a self contained flat.  But then, I've the impression that the realities of The Place and my expectations are all a bit skewiff.”   I've even been provided with my own kitchen.  What other surprises do you in store for me?”<br/><br/>I'm going to grab a shower.  Would you like me to fix you up with a drink or do you want to meet up later down at the bar?”<br/><br/>“Based on my first squiz at stuff in this flat, if ale and beer aren't to your taste, I'm sure we can find what is.  What would you like?  Some bubbly, white wine or a red.  An aperitif?  There's some plonk from down under that I reckon would be worth a go.”<br/>
