Lived there meself for 10 yrs,great place and loved every minute of it but did you ever visit the Emerald Isle,only asking.
Nah, it's not worth the money. I tend to travel to nice, sunny places when I go on holiday, as it ****ing helps to escape the depressing English lifestyle. I'm sure loads of it is quite nice
23. By the way, anyone saying '18' because they went to uni can piss off. That's not moving out, ffs.
Good man Jip,the voice of reason.Standing on your own two feet i.e ****ed out of the house and nowhere to go or I should say ****ed out of your parents house and nowhere to go
No, because living on your own in a different country with no income is exactly the same as living with your parents
Exactly. Going back to mummy and daddy every couple of months and being financially propped up is not moving out.
Did I say it was 'the same as living with your parents'? Do you have trouble reading, Toby? I merely said it's not the same as 'moving out'.
Don't get that Toby,I went to London on me own with about 500quid and had somewhere to stay for a couple of weeks but was on me own after that.
left home around 21, moved into student accommodation and eventually bought a house in rutherglen, did it up , sold it, moved back into student accommodation, then a flat at anniesland cross until I found a smaller - but more expensive - flat at broomhill cross, overlooking the park - stayed their a good few years, did it up etc, sold it and bought a very large house needing lots of work in langside ( near the boswell " country club " ). Sold that for a ridiculous profit after 8 years or so, bought a small 2 bed flat in a new development overlooking glasgow green and built the house that we are now staying in in australia on land we purchased about ten years ago. A couple of weeks ago I finished the renovations on the original farmhouse here which has now been gutted from top to bottom and should be a financial pleasure for renting out. My advice would be find a good bedsit in a nice area and never move
I left home, came to the UK 12 years after i left, with ****all cash and no grants/student loan. I worked/sold drugs to pay my way, went back to France about once (maybe twice some years), but was at Uni for 5 years. How the **** is that not 'moving out'
That's not exactly what most students do though, is it? Sorry, I should have said: "Going to uni does not count as moving out. Unless you go to the UK 12 years after you left, with f**kall cash and no grants/student loan. You worked/sold drugs to pay your way, went back to France about once (maybe twice some years), but was at Uni for 5 years."
Nah, just throw out spiteful/jealous generalisations about people that studied because you were incapable/not motivated enough to do the same
I did study, Toby. I got my degree a hell of a lot quicker than you, whilst working 30 hours a week so I could go out on the lash all weekend and still save up to go travelling when I finished. PS. Why did you go to uni for 5 years?
Yeah, it is. I left home, for another country, and took my belongings with me. Because my parents still had a house that I could stay in a few times a year means **** all. I had a job, I paid rent, and I did so for 4 years...what more do you want? That's like saying I live at my Granny's / mates' because I stay there a few times a year
