this doesn't add up.

Possibly available in my area soon: "affordable" two-bedroom apartments. The thing is, the reduced price for these will be €300,000; the scheme is only open to people earning up to €55,000 (or €75,000 for couples) but according to the last article I read on the topic (and my out-of-date understanding of the Central Bank's guidelines to lenders), you need to be earning about €75,000 to €100,000 to get a €300,000 mortgage in the first place.

that's more like it

Well, I screwed up my pacing a bit, and ended up pretty much sprinting the last 200m, but: 23:30:65. I was actually hoping for just under 23:00, but see "screwed-up pacing".
