    Yes, they heat up really quickly, and cool down just as quickly when you turn the heat off.

    Getting up at 3 am on a winters morning to use the bathroom after a few pints is not a pleasant experience
    its like a second bellybutton

    There was such a park in Mantua in Swords until a few years ago. Not a traveller's halting site, but two neat rows of well-kept mobile homes.

    Clever phrase but that is all it is. And one solution does not negate the other. People need homes NOW not at some vague time maybe. Caravans can always be replaced later.
    And they are, when done responsibly, a viable and appropriate housing resource.

    Many of these posts are subjective. Yes, many would hate living like that. But many would also hate the only current alternative. ie sub standard rentals IF they are available at all.

    Eric Cartman expresses the better approach, seeing the reality of the current rental situation . A well run caravan park is perfectly viable accommodation.

    This is now the fifth year of living in a "demountable dwelling", after running out of more usual rentals. ( see roadmaster) . They are a stage up from a caravan.

    I'm sorry I thought this was a forum for normal people to ask questions and get some genuine answers not a tool for people to feel important and more intelligent than they actually are
