Which is the cheapest city to live in in Ireland

Which is the cheapest city to live in in Ireland?
I''m hoping to spend a few months in Ireland next year, and am wondering which large city has the cheapest appartments or rooms to rent? Or are they all pretty similar? I'm leaning towards Cork, or something near there. Thanks!

I personally don't know that, but my niece lived in Ennis for a year and loved it. I've heard Galway is neat too, along with alot of other places, I'm sure....... http://www.ennis-ireland.net/content/ http://www.ebookireland.com/galway.htm
2 :
Everywhere is pretty expensive. Dublin would be more expensive than other cities, but not a lot more.
3 :
The word "cheap" isn't part of Irish society, EVERYTHING is overpriced, we even call it "Rip Off Ireland"!! All major cities in Ireland are pretty much the same, i'm from Dublin, but it ain't as pretty as Galway, so many pretty sites to see and the towncentre is v quaint and has a lovely feeling:-)
4 :
They're all pretty expensive with Dublin being the worst.. accomodation is a lot cheaper in Galway than Dublin but i don't know about Cork. I know lots of people who live there and love it though.. haven't heard anyone say its particularly expensive!
5 :
Try www.daft.ie or www.propertynews.com Both these give lettings and rentals all over Ireland with prices.

1 cup=8 oz.

a cup is 8 ounces a lb is 16 ounces I think you would use 4 cups of squash. of course, I cut and clean the squash, poke holes in it with a fork and bake it and then add butter salt and pepper and br sugar and mix it all together and then bake for awhile longer. yummmm
3 :
In the states we measure by volume rather than weight. Just chop up a medium onion-- that doesn't need to be too precise. For the milk, use 180 mL. For the cheese, you'll want to use about 70 g.
4 :
Slam a couple of pints back......then just eyeball it. Works for me.
5 :
Squash = 1 pound or 453.6 grams 1 cup (onion) = 8 ounces or 1/2 pint or 237 ml salt & pepper....just use a couple of pinches (pick it up between your finger and thumb) butter = 1 ounce or 28.3 grams milk = 6 ounces or 170 grams cheese = 6 ounces ot 170 grams
6 :
1 tablesspoon = 1/3oz 3 tablespoons= 1oz 1cup= 8oz 1 pint = 1 pound 3 teaspoons =1tablespoon =1/3 oz

It's a grand place to live in. We're not sure about the working though, as we're a couple of farmers and we're on permanent setaside...
2 :
I'd definitely recommend Ireland, especially if it's anywhere outside Dublin. Even Dublin's OK but it's a bit harder to find someone to converse with in english there as people tend to be much more approachable and friendly in smaller cities and towns around Ireland. I've just returned form working in Madrid and had the pleasure of meeting loads of Spanish people, the vast majority of who were so friendly and helpful! I think there is definitely an affinity between the Spanish and Irish which is hard to match elsewhere in Europe. If you have your work already organised then definitely go for it! From what I've heard Ireland is the best place to practice English, probabily because Irish people like to talk so much! No te preocupes, tu inglés es muy bueno. ^¡Mirada, mi español es muy terrible! Inglés no hay problema para ti, yo creo. ¡Buena Suerte y que vaya bien en Irlanda!
3 :
there is a drop in jobs in ireland at the min... all stemin from the credit crunch... I live in the north of ireland tho...
4 :
Dublin is okay, but much more expensive than the rest of the country. People are not as inclined to talk to strangers as they used to be in Dublin either! I'd recommend going to any of the cities outside of Dublin, and don't worry about the accent, you will get used to it very quickly. I've known a few people who were in the Eramus exchange, and they enjoyed it very much.

What do I have to do to work/study in New Zealand if you live in Northern Ireland

What do I have to do to work/study in New Zealand if you live in Northern Ireland?
I want to get into renewable energy and as New Zealand is one of the best countries in the world for it I would like to go there among other reasons. I have read the go to New Zealand website and I still don't know what I should do. Should I just ring up Ballance House (the New Zealand Consulate for Northern Ireland) and see what the crack is?

yes, phone them and just ask. Nobody here will be able to give you as good advice as they can. I know that NZ has reciprocal working holiday rights with Ireland, but don't think this includes N.Ireland which would probably go by the British rules, which are age-based.
2 :
Well here's the immigration site: http://www.immigration.govt.nz/ if you've got questions, drop them an email.
3 :
Well Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and thus part of the Commonwealth of Nations, and I believe that can make things easier to get study/work visas on that basis as you are technically a Commonwealth Citizen and of course it would be wise to check with the New Zealand Consulate.
4 :
if you don't ask you don't get answers, just do it bro and go.
5 :
Check out this website: http://www2.careers.govt.nz/get_job_info.html It has information for people wanting to move to New Zealand. And also has education and training information.
