Claire has messaged me to say that we may have new neighbours. The house next door to us has been empty for the past few months, but there has been a lot of noise today, suggesting it could be move in day for somebody.
A nice lady had previously lived there. She was quiet, kept herself to herself, but was always friendly when we met in the street. It would be hard to guess an accurate age for her, but I would say about early 70s.
We believe that she started to become unwell, as friends, neighbours and even nurses had been seen entering her house.
One day, she disappeared. We do not know why, or where she went. Her house was put on the market and a small group of people, presumably her family, were seen and heard in and around her home.
I do hope she is happy and well, wherever she may be.
I am keeping everything crossed that our new neighbours are as good as the last one. Students or pet dogs would be a bad sign, as they bring noise.
A couple like Claire and I would be perfect. Due to our jobs, we are too tired for the student lifestyle, so wouldn’t frequent nightclubs and return home intoxicated at three in the morning. We also have a pet rabbit. Bunnies, of course, are not famous for barking or making other kinds of noise.
With new neighbours, there is always a risk of conflict. I do hope that we don’t end up with a Victor and Patrick rivalry, as seen in One Foot in the Grave – although it would inevitably result in many hilarious scenarios, which would appear on here.
