Here is what happened ... I lived in a house owned by a friend of mine, also living there was himself, his wife, and a couple of other guys. We all paid 550.00 a month to cover expenses, and we shared with the housework, cooking, etc. Anyway, I was accused by my friend's wife of not doing my share. This started a big row and I told them 1 was leaving the next day. He said fine, but that 1 would have to pay a month's rent since, I wasn't giving notice. Can he make me pay? No, your friend is wrong. You would hove to pay a month s rent or give amonth's notice if the Landlord and Tenant Act applied. But rt doesn t apply where you share the place. and where you do not have exclusive possession of at !east one port of it. The result is that you ore technically a boarder, and not a tenant. Unless you specifically agree to g,ve a months nonce. you must only give 'reasonable notice to end the arrangement. Exeter Flowers & Gifts ORIGINAL OIL PAINTINGS BUY OR LEASE Ben J. L.
