There will be a small tent in the garden of the big house for you to use exlusively. It's a bit battered from the wind but there is a rug to keep you warm and an old sleeping bag from my student days I found in the loft. There are also a couple of buckets at the back and one is even full of rain water. Cold soup and bread will be left by the tent daily and there is a garden tap you are allowed to use. It's all free but you will need to tidy up the garden, paint the fences and keep a watch on the garden furniture to make sure nobody nicks the legs of the table during the night. No access to the big house at any time though and no time wasters.

"Where can I plug my hairdryer in?
I forgot to say that there is a socket round the other side of the garden wall. Not mine but nobody will know 
Great. I'll buy an EV before I move in then.  "
Very resourceful but please remember the strings attached but nothing much. A bit of garden work, a joyous bit of painting and looking out for those table leg thieves  |

"I will tidy and paint to my standard, pretty low to be fair but you haven't mentioned quality. I'm sure we could negotiate re food with your table legs as hostages. "
You do drive a hard bargain but there is always a bit of extra left in the pot |

Can I bring my own tent? I have a four person inflatable, an events shelter, and a six person dome tent - I would like to connect to the electric hook up for my fridge and lighting, and could run extensions to Mrs N's tent for her hairdryer. Not sure about the EV charging, does it fit in an old diesel vehicle fuel tank?
Will you be providing eggs, bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms and bread for the fry up in the morning? I have all the cooking equipment, including toaster, air fryer, rice cooker, etc.
For fence painting, I assume you are providing the paint, but if not, I have some masonary paint left over, if that will do? |

Plenty of paint as long as you can do straight strokes. Regarfing breakfast, you can have all the ingredients as long as you agree to make it for all of us, including Mrs NC who I am sure will be delighted with that, especially if it includes some fresh fruit and greek yogurt  |

"Shotgun.

Let’s wait and see. So far I had 2 couples asking about the size of the tent, a woman asking if there is a mirror and 3 straight guys asking well, best not say "
Oh it’s like that is it, I call shotgun………and one sniff of minge later, I’m cast aside like some soggy wank tissue. That’s it! I’m gonna flounce away!
Keep ya tent. And I’m gonna come and curl a long one in front of the entrance during the night.  |

I did not say they had a better chance. I can't have you curled up at the front door, that's where the neighbour's cat settles. There is room in the inn. |
