It is late on Sunday evening and I suddenly realise that I am a bit late in getting this round up done.
Still better late than ever.
We have been a bit overexcited here at Landlord Law Towers over the weekend, as we have invested in some new sofa’s which has of necessity entailed a concentrated period of sitting on them.
But that’s no excuse really. So what happened on the blog last week?
