STRANGE NEIGHBOURS AND PATRICE RUSHEN

In the New House, as it was 3 Bedrooms, Natalie had her Own Bedroom, which was a First for Her and a  Luxury for us!


The Neighbours next to us in the New House, were not that Great, We had the ones of the Left, who were there all the Time we lived there, and we ended up (not by choice) Living in this House for 12 Years and the ones on the Right, Changed every Couple of Years!


The First Neighbours (we had) on the Right-Hand Side were a Pair of Lesbians, not your usual Choice of Neighbour, back in the 80's, cant really remember anything about them, not even their Names, all I do Remember was there was 2 of them (lol)! 


The Neighbours on the Left-Hand side were a Pain in the *rse, from the time we first see them until we eventually Moved in 1993, not in a Aggro type of way, just very Petty. I remember back then, knowing nothing about Gardening, and then one day I cut some of the Top of our Dividing Bush Edge, between our Houses, and She came Flying out complaining about "Her Privet Edge" I said I didn't know what she was Talking about! that only made Her even more Irate , than she was before!


I have many Stories about that Pathetic Family, perhaps I will write about them in another Post if I get Bored!

Another Quick one springs to mind, the day Nathan ran , telling me the Neighbour was Pinching my Wood, sure enough I went outside in the Garden, and the Neighbours Hand was coming through the Bottom of the Fence, and taking my Wood!


I must be Bored, another example of them Neighbours, on about the only occasion he (the Husband) ever Spoke to me, he asked if I could run him and his Box (covered with a towel) to the Local Train Station, as he was going Somewhere! 


I agreed, and ran him there, and when I let him out at the Train Station, I asked him where he was going!  he Casualy said  "me and my Owl are off to prison" I had an Full Grown Owl  in the Boot of the Car and He was off to Prison!  "WHAT A FAMILY"
