I’m not sure what’s worse …

Written by on August 19, 2009 in BLOG - 18 Comments

Peanut, our dog, sneaking out of the house and into our neighbour’s house every time they open their door to make herself at home;

or

The 5 year old sitting for hours on end staring at our neighbour’s house like a professional stalker willing their youngest daughter to come out and play;

or

The neighbours eating their dinner in their dining room which overlooks our backyard whilst the 3 year old strips naked, gets on the trampoline and does star jumps (LITERALLY).

    I think that you may need to send over a cake or biscuits just to keep them sweet!

    Oh that’s classic. Not long after we moved in I had to knock on our neighbour’s door and ask what colour their cat was after a Bert versus cat incident that ended badly. Luckily it wasn’t theirs. Phew.

    Your efforts to become “Those Neighbors” are working fabulously.

    Ahh bless her my eldest does the same at her nannies house – her neighbour has a 8 yr old daughter and they stalk her too and try to steal her baby annabel when she’s not looking. I think you have made quite the impression don’t you? :)

    Don’t worry, our neighbours have to listen to me shouting at the kids… I’m sure your neighbours would prefer you!!!

      No one lived in our house for months before we moved in. It must have been so quiet!

      They are still speaking to us … so far and the other week they gave us some home grown veggies. When the veggies stop we’ll know …

    We had a chap round last night to quote us for relaying the patio. He was stoood in the kitchen talking to my husband when our 3 year old raced in, stark naked, to show her dad a cut she’d got on her inner thigh.
    The poor guy didn’t know where to look!

      I’ve had requests to wipe a bottom whilst we have a house full of people before.
