   Me, clearly an idiot: “Well, there’s a housing crisis in #Ireland so maybe one idea is to try to buy some land and erect an energy-efficient modular home on it; should also be minimally invasive…”

   Ireland: Well, here’s the thing, this is local land for local people (in many places you can only buy land if you’re a local – and we’re talking “been here a few generations” local… EU freedom of establishment… feck that…) Oh, also, if you want a modular home, good luck securing a mortgage for it…
