      Maybe I\u2019ll write out an intro to our space with some \u2018house rules\u2019 so we are all on the same page. There are a lot of you and I do run a bit of a tight ship as my spaces are open to the public and therefore kept in very good shape.<\/p>\r\n

      <\/p>\r\n

      We will be using all my spaces but the Upper suite so that runs from my best rooms all the way to camping<\/p>\r\n
