'''Chadwick End''' is a small cheap house owned by Miles Chadwick alone. It is really small, but Miles pretends that it is a huge house called Eden Hall, when that house belongs to a complete randomer. All he ever does in it is bash FIFA, even though he's dreadful at it. He enjoys this loneliness, and the only money he earns is from selling the chips that Hussain buys him |
