    Just be carefull if you get a house in Southern Gardens, there is one particular landlord who is/was also a lecturer in the college who owns a lot of houses in the area that is well known as being an arragant b*ll*cks, letting himself into houses at all hours of the night claiming "its my house i can do what i want" etc...... Cant say names but i think hes the only landlord in Southern Gardens that owns over 4 houses. I lived in one of his houses before and would never do it again.
    Ya, your not going to have to worry about him anymore...

    The millbrook apartment by the castle i think are the ones he's talking about. they are good if you can get in them. cheap and very much promoting freedom.

    As said earlier, college green, southern gardens and green road, these are the fun estates to live in. lived in college green myself for 2 years, loads of fun!

    I had him this year as landlord. I can see why he wasn't popular, but still, RIP.

    This year, I'm living in Arinaga. http://www.carlowarinagatownhouses.com/

    Tis a great spot, basicly on the college. Southern Gardens was fun though.

    Cmon already September!!!

    Yup, he died a few monthts ago. He was a bit of a grumpy old fellow, but wasnt that bad as long as you paid your rent and didnt trash the place.

    Wow, Frank's dead? Can't say I really liked the guy, but still, wouldn't wish that on anyone most people.

    Currently down in Southern Gardens myself. Lovely wee place; neighbours keep to themselves, it's generally pretty quiet and the houses are decently big.
    ...speaking of which, there's six of us non-smoking Computer Game Development students in a house with an awesomely laid back landlord and a currently empty room. If any of yee are interested, give John Deane a shout:

    Hope none of yee were staying in Carlow over the last few days... namely around the canals!

    gotta agree with everyone who said having digs is crap, it's like having a mother you cant tell to **** off...you just cant have any fun at all because you constantly feel like you're intruding. i didnt know that about the flast but there are like 5 or 6 appartment blocks with 'river' 'view' 'bank' and 'ferry' in them :\ are any of them actually worth living in?

    I'm still looking for a gaff...I was looking at the list of self-catering accommodation that was up on the IT website. I was talking to yer man Ray from Maher properties and he said they don't rent on an individual basis and that you have to rent the whole house. Now I don't know anybody else going to Carlow so what are my options here? Like I said before if anyone else is interested drop me a line. I'd prefer to have this setup before I head down rather than be left hanging.

    Also I've been trying to get through to the accommodation officer but she must still be on holidays.

    Roger that, I actually got through to somebody on the list who has a house in Southern Gardens, she seemed fairly sound and rents on an individual basis so am more than likely gonna go for that. Thanks for the heads up on Mr. Maher.
