A new fiddle

From the moment they step through the door your bookings become guests, and their experiences determine whether they ever come back.

A new fiddle

Post by Moliere »

A friend lets her house on a monthly basis, usual terms whereby tenants pay for electricity over and above the rent, but all else is included.
She was astonished when they needed two butane cylinders (for the hob) in a month. When she investigated she found that rather than use electricity to heat water for washing, baths, etc., they were boiling it up in quantity on the stove!

That's a new one. :roll:

Cheapskates! Showers must have been tricky ...

Perhaps time for your friend to amend her T&Cs to specify how many bottles of gas per month are included in the rental figure.
