Lockdown view

Just nosy about people's view from their house during lockdown.
I stay in a tenement flat which overlooks other tenement flats. Not a nice view at all.
I really hope people have some marvellous views.

Nothing interesting here! Sad
I live in a corner house so all I can see is my car and the 1 neighbours house and their drive full of cars. There could be a parade going on down the street and I wouldn’t knowGrin

I love my bedroom window view which lying in my bed is tree tops and sky, or sitting by the window is my garden plus neighbours gardens with trees at the back. The living room view is just the street

We're so lucky. We've got a lovely garden, and just over the fence from that, a big ol' green common, which gets used by so many for all sorts of things.

Terrace at the front, flats at the back, pictures on the walls Grin

Carolduckingbaskin · 03/05/2020 13:47

The front is nothing to write home about - but have a small nature reserve type thing and a (tiny) river the a field behind us - and a low fence. We only moved here recently so feel really lucky!
Not so lucky when idiots keep playing a full on football match on the fields though Hmm

Living room looks over the garden, currently watching a magpie try to get the fat ball holder off it's hook. Hmm
Front view is down the road with a field of sheep at the end doing sheep type things.

None of the neighbours are around doing anything interesting. Even daily car washer man hasn't cranked up his jetwasher yet.

Nothing exciting is happening here today, is your view any good for people watching OP?

Credenhill22 · 03/05/2020 13:54

No my view is rubbish. Just a street with tenaments either side.
A few people out walking but really boring and nothing of interest at all.

Front view is the vast majority now of my neighbours mingling with each other and going out ten times a day.

Rear view is the garden and we have lots of birds in there mist of the day because dh likes to keep his bird feeders and bird bath topped up daily.

The positive side to dh's bird feeding is we now have a chaffinch in daily along with a blue tit and a blackbird.

Front view is neighbours houses, a road and paths with dog owners and families out on their daily walk.
The back is our garden and then lovely trees in a nature reserve which catch the evening sun.
