When the new neighbours came to town we were wondering what they may be like? What interests they might have and would they be good neighbours?
What makes a good neighbour?
They arrived recently and with a few more added to the offspring they already had, I hoped they will not be noisy. They settled in quickly.
Strange how we have got accustomed to their habits. They have really become part of the community. But I don't like it when they come in to my garden and lounged around...you got to draw the line somewhere. How will I tell them that they are upsetting that their approach is not to our liking? Would it be too forward to raise the issue?
I remember last year a party of French students stopped on route on their holiday travels and as it was a nice day thought they would sit on the grass to have a very European lunch. They kindly asked if they could sit in the garden for lunch. Because I was taken aback I had said yes without realising it. You could tell they were continental...wanting to sit on the grass... chequered cloth... eating French stick bread in Sutherland.
Well the French students had a good relaxing lunch and set off South. It was a first for these parts. We often get strange glances as we eat out in the garden in Sutherland. Our garden table from B & Q Huntington has been well used.
That reminds me I must get some paint and stop the enset of rust.
But as for the new neighbours they continually eat out and have taken to eat in our garden without a request to us for approval!
Well maybe we will have to tolerate their different habits... I suppose they havent carried out any damage and it does increase the numbers in the community.
Here is the proof of their anticts.
The neighbours...
