Needs a lot of work (which won't be cheap) but we're gonna negotiate a good deal (I hope)… So Giles: send me an IH banner already so I can hang it from me balcony... 

Oh and RocknRoll: it's not cheap as in you can easily find a place say 100 €/ 150 € cheaper but if I say it's 700 €/ month I'm pretty sure y'all will agree it's a good deal (quality vs. quantity)...

Deals good…how many sq. meters if I may ask.

And when you find your babe, kick the brotha out and let the babe pay half ;-), see, I'm practical...

[Sugar Mountain]

For all that space, that's a great price. I get shit-all for my £600 pcm in London.

@injunjack:

No idea. I forgot to mention that I have a cellar (locked, only for me) as well… Excellent for beer and wine 

[injunjack]

oh dear….no idea of how big flat you're renting...;)
Cellar's good.

[rocket]

yeah that make me wonder too, that's usual the first point, but hey whatever and I'm pretty sure that there is some use of the cellar…

[RocknRoll]

I agree Seul, it's definitely wort paying a bit more for quality (if the budget allows). After all, your home should be a place you enjoy coming back to, not just a spot to sleep.

Your place looks clean, bright and minimalist - just the way I like it. Good amount of natural light makes all the difference I think.

I hope you enjoy it mate!

Seul, that place is fecking rad. Congrats man. I love the open feel and natural light, which is super hard to capture in pictures, I might add.

Looks good Eli

Is tiled throughout a European thing? You never see that here

[Finn666]

Damn Eli! that place looks pretty damn big if you ask me…congrats mate!

[zhivago]

Fuck yeah Seul, big pimpin bro! Place looks great

[Blackheart]

Looks fantastic Seul, congrats! Can't wait to see the move-in pics…

[Omega Man]

Nice looking place.  The question is, where is the spot you are planning to take pictures for WAYWT?

[Seul]

Balcony, Max Power style…

Thanks for the kind words, lads and lasses!.. Still negotiating with land owner (owned by a union by the way)... I don't know how big it is in square metres and I know that's important but the place runs on gas and that's cheap... Plus I barely use any heating, take quick showers, and all lights will be led or those eco lights...

I hope I can get this place... The area it's in is notorious for drug traffic, so even if I lose my job, I could venture into a different, more lucrative business...

[Blackheart]

And move into a mansion!

[Seul]

I'll just buy a big Merc, put in a fridge, all set.

[Blackheart]

Way to go!

Congrats Eli, looks like a place where a lot of fun can be had and many new memories can be made!

[seren]

Eli, enjoy.

With the help of this wonderful forum, I bought the following cigars:

Cohiba Siglo III
Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill
Ramon Allones Specially Selected
Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure No. 2

Sorry, no pics as I lent my cam to a mate. Gonna enjoy 2 of 'em tonight with a Chimay Grande Reserve 2010.

[Omega Man]

Hey Seren,

Congratulations.  How much did it set you back?  I assume you are sharing one with a friend.  I wouldn't recommend doing 2 on the same day/night by yourself.  Your taste bud/palate needs to have a rest.  The churchill alone will set you back 2 hrs.  If you are planning to enjoy two over a weekend, smoke one tonight and have another one on Sunday.  Take your time to enjoy, no need to rush.
