Purely me being nosy...

My neighbour, I haven't a clue what she does for work, young glam woman.

I spot her fairly often leaving her house on foot, dressed very glam businesslike with some sort of pass on a lanyard and a laptop bag but then she always walks home again within 45 mins to an hour.

I want to ask her as it baffles me so much. If she works from home, and is just going for a walk, why does she bring her laptop? If she's going to work, what on Earth does she do for such a short period of time? I want her job Grin

With all this chat of her convincing someone she lives with that she still has a job, all I can think of is:

Her name is Gerald.
She goes to jobshop everyday.
With people she used manage.
They plot to become a new brand of strippers that go all the way......all while Donna Summer is playing in the background. 🤣🤣

She has a whip rolled up in the laptop case. She meets her client, ties him up with the lanyard, gives him a good whipping and a hand job, then goes home again for a nice cup of tea and a biscuit.

OMG! I wonder if my neighbours who constantly watch me think this about me when I leave out on foot in work clothes sometimes with my laptop bag!
she probably works from home and could be going to get some fresh air or coffee. Maybe even has someone collect her away from prying eyes LOL

Maybe it's a sunflower lanyard not a work one. Only explanation I can think of why she's wearing that on such a short trip especially in a rural village. Worried about OP's absence though. Maybe she's a spy after all 😬

One of our neighbours is always suited, booted and with a lovely leather briefcase. Never ever seen him in a t-shirt or jeans etc in 8 years. He's an alcoholic (somewhat functioning) and puts his 'shopping' in there.

@TheCanyon that is so sad.

OP, ask if she needs a lift? Then you can take her where she's going if she says yes, mystery solved. Couldn't be bothered to read the full thread so apologies if you've already found out/stalked successfully ....

PeachCottonTree · 28/04/2022 22:23

Possibly visiting/caring for a relative and takes the laptop just in case something urgent comes up.

Skinterior · 28/04/2022 22:39

She's a money laundering accountant for the local drug dealers. She wears the suit to look serious but they don't like to hang around too long so she's done and dusted with her face to face meetings within the hour?

I may have been watching too much Top Boy.

Why do you need high heels for a zoom meeting? Sorry … missing the point of the post.

My exact thoughts too!

Daisy62 · 28/04/2022 23:39

Going to post office, posting documents carried in the laptop bag?

Blantw · 29/04/2022 04:13

Does her partner, if she has one, leave after her.

BlueAutumn · 29/04/2022 08:33

I noticed, I just ignored you as it was obviously bollocks.

yesitssea · 29/04/2022 10:06

Oh no, I was right. She was a spy and OP has been silenced.

CarrieCookie · 29/04/2022 19:42

Well @mooreover have you seen her today and did you follow at a discreet distance?

TheCanyon · 29/04/2022 22:45

DoItAfraid · 28/04/2022 22:17

@TheCanyon that is so sad.

It really is. He has seizures too, have helped him so many times. During lockdown I walked back to see several carers standing 10m away from him doing fuck all, I kinda understood but really? A human on the ground? He is no real fear to me, I know he only sees folks when arrested or seizing sadly, I've made sure I keep an eye out.

LondonMrsA · 30/04/2022 15:05

Does she live with anyone else?

Is she pretending to go to work until her husband/ wife/ roommate/ parents have gone out?

mayaknew · 06/05/2022 22:48

Youwiththeglasses · 06/05/2022 23:16
