answered mr aherne chairman john coy review ed his interpretation of the ver bal agreement as it was out lined to him posing the ques tion as to whether mr good win was interested in being a tenant if the curlers use the booth monday and tuesday if we say the curlers cant use the facilities then well have to think about cutting their rent or compare the two and set who pays the most how much docs
