The guy stuck on the lounge looks like he could be a permanent fixture. :) You’d want to check the fixtures & fittings in the Contract for that first photo.

In the early 1980's, I once had an agent who submitted photos for an ad for a rural property that was ideal for horse breeders and trainers. Problem was, one of the horses in the main photo was clearly "interested" in the mare in the next paddock. Yes, it DID slip by the system and was printed and home delivered in 50-odd thousand newspapers. Thank goodness it was in was about 20 years before Media Watch, huh? :-) Thanks Dave, brings back a few memories.
