THIS SNUG STUDIO apartment in Cabra Park, Phibsborough has a lot to offer.

For €200 a week, you get a nice bay window, lots of natural sunlight, and underfloor heating – but what’s that over there, just under those weird ladder-shelves?

Oh, it’s just a seven-year-old copy of the Irish Times, hanging out in every corner of the room.

A quick bit of research suggests that the newspaper is from 2008. We’ve either got a landlord who’s a bit of a hoarder, or an extremely long apartment hostage situation on our hands.
