House for rent in Cork. Have a look at the sitting room. I know it's a student house but surely a couch doesn't cost that much?

My 1st flat was 140 a week back in 2005

its was 2 rooms- kitchen and sitting room together- and bedroom and bathroom together- there was literly a room divider (the chinese ones) between the bed and the toilet

at the time i didnt care cos i was 18 and thick and i just wanted freeddom but now looking back i was some dope paying that for that flat!

and heres a sketch:D think of a big country kitchen- and that was the size of the whole place:(

Heat and internet included, in phibsboro. I have seen plenty worse, that is actually quite good.

I remember my houseshare, Near DCU in 2006...

80 quid a week. bills included.

the sitting room was converted into a bedroom for 2,
garage was a bedroom for two,
there was a single bed in with the boiler...
think we had 12 persons 'living' there. More if we take into account the revolving door policy. I moved in half an hour before the girl moved out.
Thankfully downstairs loo had a shower installed, so us living on the ground floor didnt have to go up stairs ever!
Tiniest kitchen. learned to eat stuff a student shouldnt have to, just from lack of cooking time and cooking utensils.
Pasta and burgers cooked in same pot+water not a rare sight.

Mental not even the word.

No, Its being scrapped, It was due several years ago around 2009/2009 but it won't be happening now, Some landlords here that had stopped renting out bedsits few years back waiting for the law to change have reopened those bedsits for rent. That's what happens when you have shíte public representative's.

It is being scrapped? Since when? There has been no amendment to the Statutory Instrument.

I'm sorry, but I would rather live in a tent or a hostel than fork over that amount on pure principle, especially these days with everyone fleeing this sinking country.

It appears to be a shed, there's a knife stuck into the front of it and whoever is renting it out didn't even bother cleaning up.

Also, where the hoover is gave us a few giggles.

I like this one, although why can't they just take photos of what the place actually looks like although I like the photographers eye for detail I don't care how lonely the first image looks.

The photographer is a midget.

I had that same tv as in the bedroom in my first flat in 1998!

Some Russians and Italians hold the superstition that sticking a knife near the door wards of evil. Maybe that's what the knife is about?

Id say its stuck into the door lock cos someone lost the keys.

I missed the knife! I'd say it's stuck in the door because it's where duggy lived with that housemate...

Me thinks I've been on boards too long...

Two friends are chatting on the way from town to person one's house.

Renter: "I love my little house"

Friend: "But its small"

Renter: "Its more quaint than small"

Friend: "It looks like a shed.."

Renter: "Its my quaint little log cabin in the city."

Friend: "DCU is not in the city and its definitely a converted shed."

Renter: "It doesnt matter, i love it anyway."

They approach the 'house'

Friend: "Someone has stuck a knife in the wall..."

Renter: "... Time to move."

This is ****ing weird. That was my Grans house till she died 10 years ago and my old man sold it on! It was a little nicer back in the day!

Someone must have checked the thread!

Hi Candy!


Looking at the new pics its not much better. You're basically living in a conservatory. Which can't be much warmer than a shed!
