Fast track apartments announced by Minister for Housing Eoghan Murphy (above) may not be built until 2020
This morning the newspapers say
There’s going to be a delay
Before we build flats
Though I’m certain that’s
Something we’ll get round to, someday
John Moynes
well…I’d rather they be built correctly rather than quickly…but my suspicion is that they’ll end up being built slowly, poorly and for quite a lot of money on top. jobs for the boys.
‘Fast track apartments’. Unfortunate choice of words. These are people’s homes we’re talking about.
Aye, they’re not schools!
Alot if for sale signs out there. ominous
Good man Eoghan.
I want to like him, I do, but I suspect it’s because he has a beard, and I do like a man with facial hair as opposed to any necessarily redeeming qualities.
Bet you were watching Jamie Doran last night… my good wife was beside herself with that beard in him :0)
Did anyone see the Kevin Mcloud ‘Houses of the Year’ UK?
I know, most were dreamy stuff, but they did feature a mixed development with affordable homes/ social housing which was a very nice development…. can’t we do that kinda thing here at all like.
…as in can we get UK builders over, if our own are too expensive… yeah, no, maybe, pissin’ in the wind?
The UK have their own shoddy builders like Taylor Wimpey and Persimmon that are throwing up substandard sh*tboxes left, right and centre. I don’t think we need to be importing that!
True, we did it for the schools – NI builders/UK builders, same-same.
But the development in the programme I was referring to was award winning, just to clarify.
I adore Kev McCloud, former opera singer…
Yep. You heard me.
Get outta here! Really? Knew he was a Cambridge man with Fry and Laurie. Make a great dinner party guest for sure.
Now that’s a man who has lived. I’m envious. But yes, I think he will be on the guest list.
Along with Louis Theroux, to ask all the uncomfortable questions.
…same Kevin yeah? Opera singer?
Pretty sure. I remember reading that he’s an opera singer as well as being Mr Grand Designs and an all-round nice guy.
Fair dues, and +1 on all round nice guy :)
