First of all it was Fontenay with dangerously low ceilings and the trigger happy downstairs neighbour, then you move to Nice with the electrified sink and the 'chantier interdit' of a staircase. You then opt for Villefranche with the lack of foundations and the danger of death sign as you walk in the front door, and now water pouring from the bathroom lights and electrifying the whole place! Ace! You certainly have a knack! Just, you two, don't think of becoming the new Kirstie and Phil, or your program would be called "Location, Electrocution, Death" haha :) xFrannoreply@blogger.com
