snip cos we are renting.

Then I guess you have a problem. Are you sure your landlord will
allow you to remove the greenhouse?

Is this an example of a change taking place in the English language which I,
personally, find extremely confusing? ;-) Does Den mean 'letting', rather
than 'renting'? IOW, is he letting the house with the greenhouse, rather
than renting it at present?


I'd say he was the tenant - in which case he's perfectly entitled to
remove his greenhouse, unless he's signed a document forgoing that
right ( which some landlords can ask for in respect of 'permanent'
additions ).

We'll soon find out...
