    Smug superior fùckers is what they are. If they were so accepting of people with different lifestyles and beliefs, they wouldn't spend so much time spouting about how great and 'unique' their own lifestyles are :rolleyes:

    I wonder what they'd do about it if you moved in like Brendan Grace in father Ted and started wrecking the place and smoking and drinking and eating Supermacs all night every night? Would they get violent or just pass around a petition for you to leave?

    Someone should go have a picnic in their front yard. Bring meat. :)

    Well they do say:
    Whatever you'll decide it's fine outside House area :)

    I think for dinner this evening I'm going to go and eat a shooter sandwich on their doorstep

    Gas from Airtricity is still burning a fossil fuel, in fact it's the exact same gas off the national gas grid a you will get from Bord Gais/Ervia, Flogas Natural Gas, Energia, etc - do they think that because they are paying Airtricity for the service that it suddenly becomes wind-generated natural gas?

    you do know airtricity have battery farms of fat people being fed baked beans all day long to generate the "Natural" gas

    I'm in Vancouver, and it's quite common here to rent out "suites" on your property - self-contained apartment type places, a bit like a granny flat. On someone's property, but completely separate to them.

    Here's one ad that's not too dissimilar to the hippy place above. Except bear in mind, it should be your own home and not a house share:

    http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/apa/4620495976.html
    TENANTS: Seeking true nonsmokers (not outside smokers), nondrinkers (at least, in the house), - there is a nice, neighborhood pub around the corner. Semi-vegetarians. (We cook chicken and fish at home, but no red meat or pork cooked or eaten hot indoors). Coldcuts are fine. There are BBQ's in the backyard (on which tenants can cook anything).
    *We are into media, music, the arts, alternative healing and yoga, gardening, bicycling, rock climbing, slack lining etc.
    *The household (upstairs): 20-somethings to 40-somethings.

    Seeking tenants who are traveling light (minimal possessions). Suitable for working professionals or students.

    I wonder what they mean by "Light weekly chores"?

    Was listening to (gwad I can't believe I'm going to type this! Joe Duffy) anyways, some student was on about this "alternative" living house, I knew straight away she was on about this gaff! The room she was offered was the communal laundry room, where the door can never be closed 0_o

    @Liveline_RTE
    An ethical house? Where you're penalised for not being a vegan, going out at night, and having a drink... A first for everything...

    it's not up yet as podcast but sure check it again.

    Semi-vegetarians? Pigs and cows are too important to eat at home, but chicken and fish? Eat away! Unless the pigs and cow come in pre-packed delicious ham form or something, then we just can't help ourselves!

    Funneh :D
    Single room shed available. Sharing with two others, one of whom goes out at night so will only need bed during the day. That gives you a solid 8 hours sleeping time before he comes back strung out as usual. This is a fair warning as this is the reason the previous resident vacated the property..http://www.daft.ie/3782618

    If it was in Dublin it would be possible but in Galway nobody will move into that.

    I love the second one, it looks like the area is so bad the front door got scared and barricaded itself in, now its peeking out the upstairs window.

    That last one there is in Australia, I think.

    The crying chair has gone international. I spotted it in the Hamiliton flat.

    What amuses me most about this one is that on the bookshelf behind all the purposefully arranged 'leading educational trends for now' books is one titled "If I'm So Wonderful, Why Am I Still Single?"

    Ummmmmm... I think I might have a few theories on that... :D

    Not in Ireland but wtf!
    http://www.theguardian.com/money/2014/aug/22/london-landlord-fined-renting-small-flat
    Many people crawl into bed at the end of a long day, but tenants in a north London house had to crawl on all fours to access their rented room.

    Barnet council has taken the landlord of a house in Sunningfields Road, Hendon, to court after discovering he was renting out a room that could not be accessed standing up. The head height along the course of the staircase was between 0.7m (2ft 3in) and 1.2m (3ft 11in) and the door to the room was also reduced in size.
