our old neighbours were fab we used to go out all together and still see them, but they had to sell and move elsewhere.
anyway a young couple bought the house (about 8 yrs younger than us) but they might aswel be 60 yrs older!!!
they moan if the football goes into their garden (we have 2 boys aged 9 and 10) and are forever doing DIY at 10pm
anyway nice as i am i alway post in my old mags for the girl to read
anyway they told me about 8 mths ago that they were getting married on 30th March so i bought them a lovely guest book which they were over the moon with, we didnt get an invite to the wedding which is fine as we havent really spoke to each other for 4 mths, anyway this morning came down and there was a note behind the door from our neighbours saying hi we hhave set off on our honeymoon here is a key could you look after our house for us/turn light on and off etc etc we will be back 16th April [shock WTF dont feel like doing it as it would have been nice to be asked if this is ok. what would you do? need to know soon as its going dark but my thoughts are sod them
