At a complete "loose end"

Ooo, missed that one Spruce. Not Cromwell Road ?:(

 

If she does, i'll tell her to write down her objections, put them in an envelope, stick a stamp on it and post it to someone who gives a ...........

:D

What was the Meatloaf song ? "So now i'm praying for the end of time so I can end my time with you. it was long ago and it was far away and it was so much better than it is today...."

 

the quickest way to make friends when moving to a new village is to go the the local pub .... everyone is inquisitive and will want to chat ... you will make a dozen new friends on the 1st night at the pub

and after the 3rd night in the pub, the village will know more about you than what you know about yourself

sounds like your neighbours may be elderly?...

I found that the old folk in my street are not too freindly (especially if you speak with a foreign accent) ....

my old neighbour still phones the police everytime I have a BBQ ... and I've been living here for 11 years ...

she does not greet or speak .... she just occasionally nods her head (but from side to side) ...

a good gardener though and I could learn loads from her.

 

Well not far away from it , its taken ages for people to speak to them
