    i have an old forge, some windows missing and a family of birds and a family of rats living there....you are welcome to it.

    don't you have any friends

    you know...... real friends


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    working on that...


    but life's a funny old thing.

    It seems no one from cambridge, actually goes to university here, so all my friends (cause we finished university) have all moved back to their fair homes in places like kent and london and cornwall.

    leaving my phone list much shorter then i thought...

    i'm up to L with no luck.

    Wouldn't it be a bit far to commute everyday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg

    i have a transporter like the one in star trek. but it only sends you one way, so you could actually stay in my house and then transport to cambridge, but you would have to make your own way back.

    I can send you €1 if you'd like? I found one, and I don't trust it. It's like some sort of evil coin that brings terrible luck on people.
    But forget I said that last bit.

    Fool me once, shame on you...

    What are hostels theses days? 10 euro for the night or something

    You get to spend the night with 16 fat, bald and hairy men who snore.

    ****! Are you sorted? I was in that position recently. Damn scary. Now it wasn't as if I was going to be on the streets or anything but you still feel horribly vulnerable.

    The last time was a mistake, I slipped, honest.
    I'm being serious now, the cat's going to run off with it.

    I have a room... but it's in Edinburgh. If you're prepared to commute every day, then it's all yours!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,531 ✭✭✭jrey1981


    Dog kennel going spare down here in Wicklow.... :D

    Any good to you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,392 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    Living in Cambridge right now. PM me! As I am also renting I can't offer a room but I know that on the internal mailing list at the Sanger Institute there are often rooms available for short-term letting. Mrs r3nu4l may be able to find something although they may take issue renting to someone called BlitzKrieg! ;)

    I don't get it - he lives in Cambridge UK or Cambridge, MA?? So why is he asking for a room on an Irish forum?

    It's called social networking ;) I received a PM from another boardie alerting me to this thread as she had seen from my location that I am in Cambridge and wondered if I would be able to help out and I've offered some level of assistance as a result. There are plenty of Irish (and non-Irish) boards.ie users spread all over the world. I use boards as another avenue of finding out and discussing what's going on at home just like I listen to Today FM and Newstalk 106 for the same reasons.

    Do not underestimate the power of da wuh,wuh,wuh.intarweb.thingy :)

    Meh, Oxford, Cambridge, a little from column A, a little from Column B, all the Oxbridge types are pretty much the same tbh...

    the last time we put a mate who was in a bit of a poxy suituation up his 'stay for a week or two until i get sorted' turned into him staying for three months, arsing around on the internet, smoking hash all day long while we worked to pay rent, bills, and put food on the table...

    ....never again....

    My ass is really sore.


    Slept on a friend's couch last night

    I feel like some sort of hobo living on a couch with all my stuff pilled up in the corner (including a television, PC, numerous games consoles and lots and lots of books.)

    I'm living out of my briefcase...The first thing I will do when I do get my house is spend the first day *honouring* the shower.

    Cause my friend is a school teacher and is gone for most of the day, if i leave the house I cant get back in until the evening, hence i must spend all today (been up since 9 trying to get into my new house by any means) wandering around cambridge in a daze...the heat doesnt help either.


    At least I was smart enough to bring my towel and swimming shorts out with me, gonna take advantage of one of the pools to get myself cleaned up.


    anyway priority list.

    -get my house (only have to wait till tomarrow they tell me.)
    -get a job
    -get a hairbrush
    -get a drink.
