2. In 1990 Tim noticed that a disused cottage in large grounds had been empty for some time and decided to renovate it and make it his home. He initially changed the locks and boarded up the broken windows. In 1992 he began refurbishing the property and occasionally stayed overnight when working late on the refurbishment. In 1995 he and Lisa, a keen gardener, moved in and began landscaping the gardens and mended the fences to keep their pet sheep from wandering off. Adam, the registered owner, was hoping to get planning permission to pull the cottage down and build a sports hall in its place, but until then had no objection to anyone using the land. Tim continued to live in the cottage until his death in 2000. In 2002 Adam sold the cottage to Saul who boughtthe property because he was so attracted by its magnificent gardens. Last year, on legal advice, Saul wrote to Lisa stating that, as he did not currently want to move into the cottage, he was happy for her to stay there with his permission. She wrote back rejecting his offer and Saul has now initiated possession proceedings.

Answer ALL of (a) AND (b).

(a) Advise Lisa.
