Most of the others are based around their dogs or their dogs names- chihuahua lady, ‘insert dogs name’s house. It’s quite awkward as some of them we’ve been talking to for years now but only know their dogs name and not theirs!

She’s called Fiona and acts all lovely when she sees us but we hear her yelling at her children like an ogre 🤣

We have a Cat Lady too (said through gritted teeth), cat crap all over the garden from her cats. We used to have a naked shower family who showered with the blinds open in the bathroom, moved out now (thank goodness).

Bongo John next door. He went through a phase of playing bongos every night at 10pm. Luckily seems to have stopped now but the name stuck!

We call one of our neighbours Snow white
Because she once got very drunk and locked herself out after a party dressed as snow white. We found her sleeping on her doorstep. (And it was may, so nowhere near Halloween)

Lauraloop1516 · 25/04/2019 15:45

'Bitch face' on our left and 'nice neighbours' on our right. I think you can guess who got a portion of the sticky toffee pudding I made over the weekend!

We've got:

Gaal and Shaal - his name is Gary. Don't know what hers is.
Greek bloke
Turkish woman across the road

When I lived with my parents we had:

Hatfield - middle aged man always in a hat.
Mucky Mable

I'm sure there were loads more as my dad has a name for everyone but I've forgotten them.

I call my mums new neighbours mr and Mrs rainbow. They painted the garage door green. The front door blue. The three front window trims red. They have primary colour blinds in the kitchen, purple upstairs curtains and pink downstairs. They wear brightly coloured clothing at all times.

BUT the car is grey......so disappointed.

Gramgram · 25/04/2019 16:05

Metal man, Gutted and Cleavage are our nicknames for our neighbours.
