Last night Dh went out to the shop and came back saying that a woman who we are pretty sure is our neighbour's wife was sitting on a suitcase opposite their house, just looking at the house and crying. We deliberated and he went back out to ask if she was ok. She's japanese and apparently doesn't speak much english but just kept saying "thank you".
He went out a while later with a cup of tea which she took, just asking which house to return the cup to. He was still concerned so went out later before we went to bed and she was gone, but the case was still there.
As nice as i thought it was for him to be concerned i couldn't see what we could do, she didnt seem to be in immediate danger or to be hurt, we didnt want to interfere in what we thought might just be a wierd drug-induced row (we know he does drugs and is an alcohoiic and she looked quite out of it) and i thought the police would just laugh if we called to say someone was sitting in the street on a suitcase crying.
But she's still there this morning, so now i feel like I should do something. What though ??
