to wonder what my next door neighbours are doing?

[gallifrey]

They bought the house before christmas, they haven't moved in but spend a couple of hours there every evening and then go, sometimes they stay there at weekends. There are several cars and vans parked on the driveway and down the road, always the same ones. There has been a massive 4x4 the last couple of evenings on the driveway.
The house is only about 10 years old and the lady that lived there before was very clean and tidy so I can't imagine it's so bad they can't move in for 3 months.
It seems a bit dodgy to me, if you see them outside they don't say hello or make eye contact at all.

What do you think they are doing?

[scurryfunge]

Painting and decorating?

[LaurieFairyCake]

My imaginations running riot. Porn films? Brothel?

Weird they don't talk to you.

[WorraLiberty]

So she was clean and tidy

Jeez, that doesn't mean they don't want to do their own decorating etc...

[fullofregrets]

Mafia?

[Schnullerbacke]

Crack house or dope farm?

Have you peered through the windows when they are not in?

[workshy]

I was thinking dope farm lol

[gallifrey]

But most people surely would live there while decorating, and seriously it was fine before anyway!?

I know it's nothing to do with me really, I'm just being nosy and letting my imagination run riot!

[Shutupanddrive]

Have a look through the window while they are out!

[gallifrey]

I've tried to but their windows are all high up...

[hollydolly29]

We didn't live in our house for months whilst decorating. Depends on their circumstances. We happily lived at parents house whilst all the work was going on. The house was fine also, just not to our taste! They'll no doubt speak to you when they move in :)

[BrianCoxHasScaryHair]

Watch out for zombie-dogs.

Just sayin'.

gets kicked off thread for referring to another thread doesn't care, has got wine

[Moln]

decorating and have a second house which they stay in untill this one's ready?

Hang about outside and introduc yourself and ask them?

[ViviPru]

They're probably getting it ready to let.

[whomovedmychocolate]

Gawd I'd never live in a house I was decorating if I could help it.

Normally you'd see stuff going into or out of the house though if they are decorating.

Maybe they have drilled into your walls and installed cameras?

[scarletforya]

Installing a pot farm.

[rimmerfleadick]

You need to time the curatin twitching to see what's coimg or going in the van.

Move your Wheelie bin so you can take some rubbish out at the right time.

[ViviPru]

I've been in. You won't believe what they're up to in there

[troisgarcons]

sometimes they stay there at weekends



Perhaps they have other properties of their own they live in and this is a joint one?


Perhaps they work away?

Perhaps they bought it as an investment (the foold#s!) in a declining market?

Perhaps they are running an Al Quaida cell from the basement? Ahh windows too high, from the penthouse?

if you see them outside they don't say hello or make eye contact at all.

perhaps they don;t like the look of you

[Redbindy]

Perhaps they have been murdered.

[NoOnesGoingToEatYourEyes]

There was someone on the news a while back who rented out his house while he was travelling or working abroad or something and the people renting it never moved in but turned every room into a cannabis factory.

Then they scarpered, having paid no rent and having wrecked his house.

Do you have any access to that thermal infrared equipment OP? If their house is glowing you will know what they are up to

[whomovedmychocolate]

Incidentally a mirror on a broomstick can get round the high up windows issue (just saying)

[misslinnet]

Maybe they're renovating.

The people who bought the house across from us did exactly this sort of thing. Spent a good 4 months doing the house up, including replacing the kitchen & bathroom (and the old units they dragged out onto the driveway looked fine) before moving in.

And we still don't get much in the way of eye contact or hellos a year on....

[gallifrey]

yes mummyyum1 my life is that fucking sad!

Like I said, I don't really care and it's nothing to do with me, I was just wondering....

and they keep moving our wheeliebins!

[annalovesmrbates]

Or maybe they are murderers and stash the bodies in there...........
