Not within my earnings, I can't afford to move to just any place.

I've heard that their accommodation/rentals are ridiculously priced.

yeah I can get a room for £350 - £400 a month but it's a tiny room and I need space for all my things. You can get acommodation for £550 for a 3 bed apartment or any other place, if you're lucky enough to find a cheaper option. Most of them are between £650 to £850 a month for two bedroomsI've heard that their accommodation/rentals are ridiculously priced.

I've told you before, I don't own it. And I absolutely refuse to move back into it - no heating for the winter and the electrics are shyte - my cousin recently messaged me and asked me how I managed to make it work as now the current occupant is having issues there.

I would give my left testicle to live in that caravan.
So much bigger than mine

you can't even run a vaccuum cleaner in there - it trips at the mains outside and you can't run a electric kettle, it threatens to trip your electrics.
Which tells me, the caravan is shite and has not been maintained.
There are others that are way better with gas heating - my aunt couldn't believe I was given a shit place to stay in but there was nothing she could do and no one else bothered to look at it. It was leaking in the middle too - no one bothered to fix it. and I was paying £400 a month with around £20 on electric bill, around £100 on gas in the winter (all of these per month).

yeah if you want to live like a hobo, fine. I need electricity to be able to work from my PC and phone.
Sounds like you live with a hobo.

I took the "here" to mean "Around us", meaning "around our suburb". Not around "here" meaning "around our country".
Cool, whatever, honest misunderstanding, no harm done I hope.

OK!
What really grinds my gears is when I'm browsing products on a site, see a pic of said product, and it encourages me to "click on the picture for a larger image".
So I click on the image and THE SAME FUCKING IMAGE pops up centre screen, the SAME FUCKING SIZE!
Or, even worse, it's the same image blown up into a pixellated mess that looks like something my dog vomited up!
Sometimes the lazy-arse person who made the site even reverses the image, so the original is LARGE, so you click on it thinking
"Wow, I'm going to see this product I'm interested in really HI-RES so I can REALLY check it out in detail!"
You click on it, and the thumbnail takes centre stage, in all it's 10mm x 10mm glory.
That really grinds my gears!

agree
yebo electronics is like that
and loads of Takealot pics as well
Its very typical of South African websites to do that
Pathetic
And this is why Trump calls Africa a shithole, he is 100% correct
