I moved house recently, and I met the neighbours next door but one and we had a little chat. They seemed nice enough.
I ordered a load of books from Amazon the other day and got an email saying they’d delivered my parcel and left it with my neighbour Adam. I was thinking who the hell is Adam?
I was standing on the front deive while my partner was doing some gardening work in the shrubs on the side when the next door but one neighbours drove up and went in their house. DP suggested I could start by asking them. So I went to their front door and knocked but no one answered. I knew they were in, maybe they couldn’t hear me? I knock again, louder. I was knocking on the porch, so maybe the door dividing where i was kno king and where they were sitting meant they couldn’t hear me still.
I hear someone come out their back door, and I shout ‘hello? Is anyone there?’ No answer.
I give up and start to walk off, until i find a debit card on their driveway. I pick it up and shout again that I want to return their debit card, but no answer.
DP said he could hear me grom our back garden (he was transferring bits from the back to the front) so there was no way they wouldn’t have been able to hear me.
A few minutes later, im back on my own drive talking to DP about it, when some friends drive up to next door but one’s house an dpark on their drive. I go up to them and tell them whats happened and give them the card. I go back to my own drive and watch the neighbours who had been ignoring me come out and talk to their friends. They’re all looking at me, and then they all go in. No one has thanked me for returning their card
So are my neighbours rude or do I come acroyas crazy?
And after all that, it turned out I’d forgotten to update the delivery address details on my Amazon account, so Adam is my old neighbour! 🙈
