19th April 2015 - Overdue

Haven't written much in the last while. I've been so busy house hunting, I've barely been on the internet. It seems as if I will be leaving county Dublin for accommodation and instead move out further to county Meath. As of this week I have been priced out of Dublin. The market has changed so dramatically that I'm forced to look at different locations just outside Dublin. The demand is unbelievable and it seems that people in Dublin have more cash available to them to outbid you on property. It has become rather unnerving.

In my attempt to still get onto the property ladder I'm looking at Bettystown, Co. Meath, one of the last places before Drogheda. It's lovely place at the beach, less hassle compared to Dublin and it's considerably cheaper. Also the places are a lot bigger for the money you're paying.

I currently have bids in for two apartments and I would be happy in either of them.

Going to the market today in Dublin city centre (Dublin 8, just around the corner from St. Patrick's Cathedral and Christchurch) to catch up with a friends I haven't seen in a while. Weather has become very and quite mild. Looking forward to my break though.

I took a picture of a daffodil field when I was on my way back on Friday from Bettystown.

Daffodil field just outside Julianstown, opposite the cheapest petrol station I've found so far in all of Ireland and just a couple of minutes drive away from the location where I hope to be moving. I've been looking for this field for ages. I remember driving by once, telling myself to find it again to take pictures.

I've realised over the last couple of days that I need to replace my phone. It seriously has reached its limits.

Keep fingers crossed now that everything is going well.
