πŸͺ‘ Friday Fact Somewhere in your home there is a πŸͺ‘ Friday Fact
Somewhere in your home there is a chair that hasn't been sat on since approximately March.

It started with one jumper.
Then some jeans arrived.
A hoodie moved in.
And now the chair has disappeared completely. πŸ˜‚

This weekend, we challenge you to uncover it.
No tenancy advice. No fire hazards. No drains. No legislation.
Just a small Friday reminder that chairs are, apparently, for sitting on.

🐘 Know Your Tenancy: Before You Get a Pet… Th 🐘 Know Your Tenancy: Before You Get a Pet…
Thinking of adding a four-legged (or considerably larger!) member to the household?

Under the Renters’ Rights Act, tenants can request permission to keep a pet and landlords must consider the request rather than simply saying no without good reason.

But there can be other restrictions, particularly in flats. A head lease may prohibit certain pets, so this needs checking too.
Always make your request in writing, and remember that an additional β€œpet deposit” can’t simply be added on top of the legal tenancy deposit cap.

And if your new housemate causes damage? That’s your responsibility - whether it’s scratched flooring, chewed woodwork or, presumably, an elephant-shaped hole in the wall. πŸ˜πŸ˜‚

Wet shoes after walking through London's autumn weather?

Resist the temptation to put them on a radiator.

Instead:
πŸ‚ Stuff them with newspaper or kitchen paper to absorb moisture.
🌬️ Leave them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated room.
πŸ“° Replace the paper if it becomes damp.

Your shoes will dry more evenly and are less likely to lose their shape.

A simple trick that can help them last longer.

They're one of London's most unexpected residents...

Around 10,000 urban foxes are thought to live across Greater London, making the capital one of the best places in the UK to spot wildlife living alongside city life.

They're most active at dawn and dusk, so if you're heading home after work or out for an early morning coffee, keep an eye out. You might spot one quietly wandering through the streets or exploring a local park.

A true London local. 🦊
London renting, done better.

🍞 Friday Fact Toast weather has officially arr 🍞 Friday Fact

Toast weather has officially arrived. πŸ‚ But when did you last check what's lurking underneath yours?

Most toasters have a crumb tray, and it's worth emptying it regularly. A build-up of crumbs can start to burn, causing that unmistakable burnt smell and potentially creating a fire risk.

A quick toaster tidy:
πŸ”Œ Unplug it first
❄️ Make sure it's completely cool
🍞 Slide out and empty the crumb tray
🚫 Never poke knives, forks or other metal objects inside

The crumbs have had their breakfast. Time for them to leave. πŸ˜‚

Have you heard of London's Magnificent Seven?

No, they're not a band. πŸ˜‚
In the 19th century, seven large cemeteries were created around London to relieve the capital's overcrowded churchyards.

Today, they're some of London's most atmospheric green spaces.

🌿 Abney Park, Stoke Newington
A woodland nature reserve filled with winding paths and Victorian monuments.

πŸͺ¦ Highgate Cemetery
Probably the most famous of the seven, with spectacular Gothic tombs and some very well-known residents.

πŸ‚ Nunhead Cemetery
Woodland, wildlife and beautiful views towards central London.

πŸ›οΈ Brompton Cemetery
Grand avenues and impressive architecture, just minutes from the bustle of west London.

🌳 Kensal Green, West Norwood & Tower Hamlets
The remaining three complete London's Magnificent Seven.

They're fascinating pieces of London history and rather beautiful places for an autumn wander.

Just maybe don't leave it until after dark. πŸ‘€

🏑 Know Your Tenancy: Before You Move Your Partn 🏑 Know Your Tenancy: Before You Move Your Partner In…
Spending a few nights together is one thing. Moving in is another!

If your partner is going to make your rented property their home, speak to your landlord or agent first. They’ll need to know who is living at the property and will normally carry out referencing and Right to Rent checks.

It’s also worth thinking beyond the tenancy. Another person in the household can mean changes to bills, Council Tax and any discounts you currently receive.

And one important question: will they become a joint tenant or a permitted occupier? They’re not the same thing, and they come with very different rights and responsibilities.

Much easier to sort it properly before the boxes and houseplants arrive. πŸͺ΄πŸ“¦

As the weather gets cooler, now's a good time to check your radiators.

If they're warm at the bottom but cold at the top, they may need bleeding.

Before you get started:
🏠 Check your tenancy agreement if you're unsure who's responsible.
πŸͺ£ Keep a cloth or small container handy for any drips.
πŸ”‘ Use a radiator key to release trapped air until water starts to flow.

A few minutes now could help your heating work more efficiently this autumn.

When people think of London, they often picture skyscrapers, busy streets and the Tube...

But did you know the capital is home to more than 8 million trees? 🌳

That's almost one tree for every Londoner, helping to make London one of the greenest major cities in the world.
With the leaves starting to turn, there's no better time to enjoy a walk through one of London's many parks, commons or tree-lined streets.

London renting, done better.
