3. A sudden concern for BER ratings.
4. These f**king wobbly mirrors.
5. A hopeful “Location location location!” heading up an ad for a dank bedsit in Smithfield. Even Anne the Letting Agent knows it’s a dud, god bless her.
6. “Wow, this room is only €300 a month! Oh please excuse me, I misread. €300 a WEEK.”
7. Whole houses for rent for about €20 a month in rural Mayo (you were just checking). Why don’t we all move there?

Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet

19. A shower or a toilet in a bedroom. Not an en suite like, just a lone shower or toilet.
