Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 16 December

This post is more than 11 years old

December 21, 2013 by Tessa Shepperson

Xmas TreeChristmas is upon us and all around people are getting ready for the big day.

I have to say it has rather crept up on me this year.   I only got around to doing the decorations on Thursday – and that was largely becuase the broadband went down and I had nothing else to do ..

Its nice when they are up though – I do like the Christmas tree lights.

Not much more on the Landlord Law Blog now before the new year, just this and the end of year retrospective.

So what happened on the blog last week?

Monday
