About the landlady:
A chilled, relaxed, respectful, friendly woman, keen on creating a sustainable, progressive and relaxed household.
Respect of one another's space and privacy is a key prerequisite to comfortable cohabitation.
When I have two lodgers I use the living room as my bedroom at night, but during the day, and when I am away, it is open, and I welcome lodgers to come in, chat, watch TV and also use the table and chairs for meals, by arrangement.
I am about 90% Vegan, 10% vegetarian but only ask that lodgers close the kitchen door and open the window when cooking meat (and especially fish! 🤢🤢🤢)
I have a separate Ninja Foodi container to cook these foods.
