New Neighbours
39 Answers
If you have new neighbours move in, do you go and introduce yourself? If you move into a new place, do you go and make yourself known to the neighbours?
I've been in my new house 3 weeks. I thought I should make myself known. The ones directly opposite have 20 dogs. They are quite a nice couple, although I mean, 20 dogs? The ones next door are very sweet, although they let their HUGE labrador/retriever hump me and I now have a hole in my leggings. OK, so that broke the ice. And then the others in the big house across the road, well ******* me, he answered the door in his underpants and said his wife was in the shower and would I like to come in. Errr no, perhaps it is an inconvenient moment and I'll pop back.
You try to be neighbourly, you wish you hadnt.....

I wouldn't really know the correct protocol. I've lived in my current house for forty years this year and the neighbours either side were both there when I arrived! I'm still the new boy!
My sister moved house recently and whilst a few of us were helping with the move the chap next door knocked with six cups of tea and chocolate biscuits. He thought (quite correctly) that we would not be able to find cups and a kettle. What a nice chap (well, it was in Norfolk).

my my and all this is in Pump Court EC 1
so the law quarter is as mad as we say ....
the fella in his undies was a judge I suppose
( mens undies I am sure )
but seriously - Bam Bam - first - welcome to your new house
and secondly yes I do introduce myself to new neighbours and ask if there is anything I can do
( you know my medical condition is such that getting up and walking in a straight line is 10 /10 for the day and anything extra is rare and probably untrue )
the reason is one neighbour ( code named Vicky Pollard ) reported me to the Police as in her garden at midnight....
luckily I was to be found in London not a million miles away from Pump Court actually ..... I am careful to culture my neighbours as rare wild fleurs....and shout things to the birds like - cooee birdies going down to Lundy today .....
