New neighbour

On one side of me great neighbors and they are the only one we let baby sit for my grand daughter. the one on the other side havent spoke to her in years and I am not cutting my tree down cause she wants it down. the people behind us we dont know and one couple across the street has been her for a cook out and we enjoyed that very much. But we cant get togethre to muc for the hours they work and the hours my son in law works! A lot on our block are spanish and other nationalities we are a great mix of peoples

I have always had good neighbours, they tend to adopt me, I have a lovely greek lady and her grown up duaghter living next to me, I am dog sitting their little dog at the moment, but she calls me her second daughter but I am one that doesn't ask peoples ages but i think she is probably about the same age as me...

I live up a holler, and we are surrounded on 3 sides of the house by my husbands family and there are even more that live up the holler a little further which is also all his family. I can only say there are is good days and bad days..lolsibling will be sibling and argue occasionally

It is always nice to have a bit of space around where you live, if at all posible that is. We are fairly lucky as we live on a few acres of land and no near neighbours as there is a fair bit of bush near us. In fact it is on 3 sides of our property and the road is on the other side. Not thick bush by any means but it is not residential land at all and that is the important bit from our point of view. Our nearest neighbours are a couple of kms away from us and anyone coming to our place had to go past the neighbours’ to reach us. To road to our place once the neighbours’ place is passed is actually dirt (unsealed) road, so we can see them coming before they get to us. The neighbours are pretty good actually and if we are not home, then they take note of who is going past their place and let us know later on. They don’t interfere or pry but just keep an eye on the place and make sure that nobody is around the place too long if we are not home. If that happens, then they come on down to make sure that everything is okay and nobody is pinching the watermelons. They are not family or best friends but fantastic neighbours who are always there is we need them I suppose is the way to sum them up. If we were having a get together at home and it is not a strictly family affair, then we would always invite them and they do the same with us. Their children are around the same ages as ours are. In fact when their youngest daughter first moved out of town, she lived with our oldest daughter for a year in another town. She has since returned to our town though as she got a job here and is much happier in this little town of ours. It is great if you can have good neighbours and even better if you are friends with them. It certainly does make life much more pleasant and more so if you live in a small community. If you can’t have good neighbours, then you are better off having none at all I often think. It does sound like you have a good neighbour who is also a good friend to you MsTickle and that would certainly add to the enjoyment of living where you do.

The house to our left is empty as the lady that lived there has gone into a home. To our right is a young family who are pleasant enough but we don't have much o do with them. They have two little boys that scream every morning. Not MY favourite way to start the day. Behind we have a family who keep themselves to themselves. Opposite we have a couple ion their thirties who were childless but came home one day with three small children who all now call them Mummy and Daddy. So we assume that they have adopted. Next to them is a woman that was born in her house in the 1930s. I'd say that we are all friendly enough, we'll help each other out if needs be, but we are not "friends". Kind of how I like it really.

i havent been here long enough to know but i've found that most neighbors these days are hard to get aquinted with unless you've lived in a small town or community for a very long time. when i was younger, it seemed people were more friendly those days also.

Most of my neighbors keep to themselves and they will do things that I really do not approve of. The people next to me have gotten into really nasty arguments where the police have been called over one to many times.

Hello Ms. Tickle, How nice for you to have so much space and such a lovely neighbor. I had to move to the "big city" a few years ago due to family reasons. I sold my house and bought a condo near public transportation. At first I was totally miserable but now due to personal health issues I really like it. There is a small library in the building, an exercise room, sauna, and big hot tub in the basement. My neighbor across the hall is a retired priest, right next to me lives a retired couple, they barely speak English, they are Ukrainian, then there is Hazel next to the priest she is English and an excellent cook and baker, there are more apartments on my floor but I don't know the people very well, only to say hello to but they all seem to be nice. There is a legal secretary next to her another Ukrainian couple, who are friendly but kind of loud, then there is a Portugese lady and her teenage son and on the other side of the elevetor a Polish couple, a retired lady, a professional woman and another couple. I am lucky we all get along.

Hi there, It's really fortunate that you got such good neighbors. Well, I do not really have good neighbors or I am not that closed to them. Though I always try to be friendly to them and try to keep the good relationship with neighbors, sometimes I just find that they are not considerate. As they will interfere my compound, throw or push rubbish in front of my house, park the car in front of my house, and so on. But, I have not make any complaints to them yet, as I do not wish to make the relationship becomes worse. I do greet them and talk to them when I see them.

You are lucky enough to have good and kind neighbors. I like our neighbors also. They are very accommodating and nice to us. They even invite us all the time when they are celebrating something like birthdays, anniversaries, graduation, etc. It's fun to live with them actually. I have nothing against our neighbors now. They are all very good to me and my wife. Our life is more peaceful with them in the neighborhood.

We have been very lucky with our neighbours this time. I could not ask for better neighbours. They are pleasant and talkative when we see each other but they never bother me all the time. They are lovely to the kids and one side are always giving them boxes of toys and even sent money for my son on his birthday. They are not noisy and they are not a pain! We are not the best of friends but I know that if I ever needed help for any reason they would be there in a flash.

My husband and I are living in our second home now...but it never seems to fail that no matter where we live we get the goofiest neighbors. In our starter home there was an average family who would often have large groups over and they would park infront of our driveway. I don't mind when someone parks in front of the house but NOT in front of our driveway! That's just rude and illegal for all I know. On the other side of us was another family who were constantly getting into loud domestic disputes. That's lovely let me tell you. It was a single woman and her 3 teenagers. Her children were horrid. Thankfully we only lived there for about 5 years. The house we live in now is on a quiet street. We're surrounded by elderly people and they seem as sweet as can be. Well, everyone except the widow who's to the east of us. Everytime she drives by she cranes her neck out of the window to stare at us. And she isn't very friendly at all. So I have to say while I don't just love them, I don't hate them either. Most of them are friendly and chatty. I like that. It makes for a good peaceful neighborhood.

I think I'm quite bless with good neighbors. my neighbor on my right recently had some construction work done he converted his entire back yard in to a pool and barbecue area which was noisy for months but now its all done he recently had a party and his house looks great. My neighbor on my left is a lovely old couple who has lived in that home for nearly 30 years together and they were high school sweethearts back in the day and are still in love. isn't that sweet? I think its a shame that their son only visits them ones in a blue moon but their daughter comes every weekend!

Recently my neighbours have all moved away and only my family is left.... I also wat some good neighbours come=[ It makes me feel lonely atnight when it's so quiet, I find that I cannot bear this any more. Again sorry for my poor English

I have a parking lot that belongs to the church directly behind me. The church owns all the houses on that side of the alley. They get rented and sometimes it is good, sometimes bad. Church owns the house to the north of me as well.Most of the renters do not know the church owns the property as an agent who is a real "b" manages the property. I would like to see that change. Immediately to the south is a great guy who works for the utility company and tends to maintain the alley and do lots of stuff around the neighborhood. In his spare time he builds cars for the demo derbies.On the corner, the last neighbors, keep completely to them selves. Put up a privacy fence and have nothing to do with the rest of us. Cross the street south and there is the college I attended thirty five years ago. Small college, church sponsored. Businesses across the street in my block. A real estate agency, a physical therapy clinic and the American Red Cross offices. Pretty quiet, not very intrusive, except for the agent that manages the rentals, and she oversteps her bounds a lot.

Sounds like you've got a great neighbor! We don't talk or really associate with ours much, but the couple next to us have borrowed our lawnmower and that sort of thing before. The people across the street have a psycho adult son that leaves nasty messages in our mailbox and waits until someone goes to the box before leaving. It happened when I had a bunch of bushes removed and when we had to take down a tree -- you know, things that happen and are cleaned up within a day or two. For the most part, our neighbors are relatively unoffensive and don't bother us, which is a good thing, for me!

[/i] i really hate my neighbor![i] they are all so weird and doesn't know how to cooperate and behave as neighbors.. i'm really hoping that i had a neighbor like yours. you're very lucky and blessed to have one good neighbor.
