400 Babies…
Good morning,
Hello from the mould growing on my wall. His name is Harold and he has started a mould party in my piece of shit flat. He is friendly but now his power is being threatened by the evil sewerage pipe which has gathered its evil hordes and is trying to usurp power. His first action is to erupt in the back garden outside my window. He may well have beaten me.
I have kept this flat for so long…i get two rooms (that are falling down) that are relatively dry and safe and I put my cheap rent (for Dublin) in the landladies bank and we leave each other alone. The way I like it. But now the shower is threatening to die, Harold’s fungus party is keeping me awake at night and the evil Lord sewerage pipe mocks me as i cook on the one remaining ring on my cooker.
I think i must admit defeat…so if anyone has a couch i can crash in Dublin for a night or two a month (I’m going to move my stuff into storage down the country and need somewhere i can crash for a few hours before heading out of Dublin Airport on tours) until i can sort something more permanent then please let me know.
Apart from that i am taking suggestions on places to live, doesn’t have to be Ireland. All i need is an airport somewhere near. Surf within 2hrs drive is a plus. All suggestions and insider knowledge of places to rent welcome…
this cheered me up…Thanks Brandy!

What about Bordeaux, France ?
the ocean is at a 1h30 hour drive from the town, there’s a fairly big airport, Spain’s at a 4 hour drive, the Pyrenées at 3, and you can get to Paris in 3 hours with the TGV. Plus the rents are chaper than in Paris (guess that 400€ could get you a nice 35 square meters flat).

Hey Dec, in my humble opinion I believe it is time you moved back down here to Australia, personally I’m tired of never getting to see you anymore.
As far as good places, come live here in Newcastle, beaches are pro, we have an airport and the music scene whilst once terrific has now degraded into a steaming pile of shite in much need of a shake up, I think your the man for the job
I personally offer up the spare room in my new house for as long as you need
