Neighbour's Daughter

[jennyjoan]

neighbour's daughters come to "visit" her on a regular basis ie - talk to her from their car perhaps. so I went over to speak to this neighbour/friend (very good person) - anyway daughter was sprawled on the garden talking away and I was only over for a few minutes - daughter informs me these are the words. "you are not allowed out".

when I got back to the house I realised I shoulda said - but yes I'm allowed for an hour to exercise my dog and myself. anyway rant over.

Not much of a rant, JJ, but i bet you were fuming that you didn't say that at the time.

Cheeky madam!

If she said it like that I’d have said! You, young lady need to learn some manners !

Were you standing a bit too close to her?

Think everybody is fractious at the mo - do think neighbour was annoyed with her.

Next-door neighbour (male) waits for me to come back over - just to have a yarn per se. Really self-isolating - he, the wife, daughter with a 6 week baby - all self-isolating but the son is ambling up and down the street. Can't work that out.

Neighbour dreadful looking. Likes a wee drink in our local, goes for the shopping every day (in normal times) - so think it is getting to everybody.

well away Sherrard

On reading the post- it has been written wrong. She wasn't actually saying to me "you are not allowed out" meaning I shouldn't have been there at that moment. No, we were discussing what we should be doing and I said I was going out to exercise the dog - that's when she said it.

sorry for the misinterpretation/misinformation. my bad.

As you said, everyone is getting a bit scratchy with the self isolating and different levels of worry (also, some people are just not very nice).

The written word is very often misinterpreted
