All the space you need to have stupid experiments.
You could buy your own go karts and have little mario kart races inside.
Indoor fireworks.
Big screen tv? Fuck that how about 50 foot projector screen.
Also most warehouses are in industrial areas, know what that means? No residents complaining about a 2000 watt sound system booming out explosions from your console/dvd player.
Some people might say it would be awkward for when women come around, but i think thats not true. See, if you tell a girl you live in a warehouse, and she still comes home with you, she knows her place. Shit, you could probably take your time chopping her up if you wanted to, and all you would have to do is hose and bleach the concrete floor after you disposed of her body in the garbage disposal.
Also, the bitch will realise that you dont exist to make a fucking nest for her to procreate in. its a warehouse. porno flix are shot in warehouses, you dont raise babys there.
I think the main thing is, how bad assed it would be to drive your car/motorbike through those big automatic shuttered rolling up garage doors at the end of the day. Then you park your vehicle of choice next to the sofa, take 3 steps and switch on the tv.
fucking sweet.

How about an airplane hangar? That way you could park your airplane of choice next to the sofa etc. It's almost the same as a warehouse.

It's freezing in my place in winter anyway, I'm with OP on this one.
The mariokart idea really sold me.

I have already thought of that. I'll sleep in one of those new pod beds that have central heating. Also there will be heated tiles to the bathroom (basically a shower and bath at some place in the corner).
I kinda want the bathroom to be like the one in Portal, a glass cube type affair, or for those that have seen xmen where they capture magneto.
So its enclosed and can be heated up.

Airplane hangar would also be cool, but costs would be expensive, also harder to maintain security too.
The cost to lease an aircraft hangar in SE england for 30 years till the leasehold runs out.

Working minimum wage full time, 12 people could comfortably raise that amount in mortgages.
If you could find 12 people who wanted to do this, maybe you could be onto something. But generally this sort of thing normally goes to shit when multiple people are involved.

On the other hand, a Warehouse is more reasonable, and can be rented for as little as 3000 per month. if you get 20 people thats 150 quid each.
>>19
This idea is sounding more interesting. 150 "quid" is about 246 U.S. Dollars. Added with 20 people could pay for a nearly $5,000 warehouse. Although I have to agree with that >>18 said:

Wow, that's pretty cool. This may be a bit off-topic, but do you guys over in the U.K. have things like squats? (Abandoned buildings that people move into and sometimes do restoration work on and whatnot.) I've read there are still many squats in Europe. There used to be many in American cities like New York City and such, but nowadays it's pretty rare to find such a place.

Yeah there are.
In one case, some art students found a vacant property in centeral london. They held art classes etc there and did other moral bullshit to justify their existence.
Anyway the place was like a 4mil house in like kensington or something.
There are loads of properties in the most affluent areas that have been bought by rich people (aka arabs) who dont give a shit, they just own it for investment purposes and for tax reasons. The richest portion of UK tax payers are foreign nationals. Thats people who say they live in the uk but come from another country. They get massive tax breaks.
Of course, if you arent named quentin and arent studying for a degree in fine art at the royal college of art, you will find the police alot less forgiving if you were to try the same shit.
That one costs like $10000 so its abit expensive, but im thinking i could make my own one for alot cheaper.
you could duct air in from the outside and run it through air conditioning units too for heating/cooling purposes.

Minimal requirements are:
Water supply
Electricity Supply
Phoneline (for da internets), or even better optical connect
Toilet - This is a fucking necessity!
Everything else like baths/shower etc can be added later.

I have had a pet rat, cat, dog, and horse(more than one cat and dog though out the ages)! I learned to HATE horses! They are dicks! It about killed me when I was little!
>>36
Oh excellent. I had gerbils. Now about the cat, what's the feeling of the fur? That is, the sensation of petting the cat.

There is an old Clint Eastwood movie called The Eiger Sanction. Clint plays a part time assassin hired to "sanction" a dude on an alpine mountain climbing expedition. The book the movie is taken from(same name), by Trevanian, of course goes deeper and in it the assassin lives in an old stone church. At least I think it's stone. I may just be remembering stone because that's what the one I want is made of. He's got a big old Roman bath/fountain in the nave.
