OK, our 3 flats share one outside staircase. NDN swept the snow of the stairs on Sunday morning. Sunday evening I noticed the stairs had been covered in table salt. Oh well. I do have strong anti- views on using table salt for this purpose but didn't think much of it.
Today NDN pulled me up in the street and said "Did you cover the outside stairs in that slippery stuff?" "No. It must have been the other neighbour." I said. She turned to her DH saying "Oh dear we must apologise to [other neighbour]. It was so slippery, we spent ages trying to get rid of it!" "Oh," I said "You thought it was me, well I never etc" while PMSL to show good humour.
But this raises all sorts of questions...
Namely, did they stand outside the third neighbour's flat slagging me off personally BUT also casting aspersions about anyone who'd use table salt for this purpose being a, perhaps, Barking Mad Cunt or somesuch?
If not what other reason could there be to apologise to 3rd neighbour? Or for that matter to say to me, sorry we blamed you in public?!
Sorry I don't do living in enclosed communities very well!

AIBU?
To wonder what NDN actually said? Bit daft but it's bothering me.
