We have a communal garden for the use of all residents in our garden square.
Recently a neighbour rang asking me round for a cup of tea and a chat about the dog in the garden. I said I could chat on the phone. She says that a neighbour is taking their dog into the communal garden which has never happened before, and that she wants me to complain about it.
She has told another resident in the square to complain too and she has. I asked what was the problem with the dog, has it been making a mess or been noisy (none of which I have noticed) but she ignored that and just repeated it had never happened before, and that there was a new mum with a baby next door who might not like the dog.
When I said again I would need to think about it she told me that I spoke too fast, I must be busy and that the other girl (she told to complain) didn't speak fast like that. (I am not a girl I am in my 40s)
All a bit strange.
I don't want to complain on this lady's behalf and think if she is bothered about the dog she should complain herself, really.
