TENANT STAYING WITH US FOR 1,000 DAYS
For the 35th time we have celebrated one of our longstanding, loyal tenants who have lived in one of our beautiful shared houses for over 1,000 days; many congratulations Chris!
We are very happy to provide him with a bottle of fine French Champagne – oh no, he preferred a bottle of Jack Daniels… Anyway, that is not for sharing!
