i'm mad now!
Just had the most stupid argument ever with a guy at work.
In dublin there is a north/south divide. South is generally viewed as posher, more upmarket, but in recent years, it seems that Landlords just charge astrinominal rent, knowing people will pay for the postcode, and the quality of flats and houses has gone down somewhat.
My Dad is a southsider historically, but I live out in the northside, which has a more... working class background. I have a beautiful house, in a nice we estate, and I've never felt unsafe and for the same amount of rent on the other side of the city i'd live in a cupboard.
The guys argument is that the southside is just better, adding to this the fact that were equidistant from the actual city centre, I just don't understand what his problem with the northside is! Its really annoyed me, and I can'tquite put my finger on why!
-Sorry just needed a wee rant to vent so I don't shout at him later :)
