Feel a bit sorry for my neighbours
10 Answers
I have posted on here before about how there have been problems with our neighbours over parking. Recently I noticed that Mr neighbour had his leg in plaster and mentioned to his wife that I would give them my phone number (in case he needed assistance when she was at work, etc) and told them to let me know if there was anything I could do to help.
Since then she has been round to thank me and I thought no more of it. This morning (about six weeks after may offer of help) Mrs neighbour came round with a big box of chocolates to thank my for my kindness - even though I haven't done anything to help them.
Just find it kind of sad that they seem to have isolated themselves from their other neighbours (think they have lived here some time) and that they can be so touched my someone just offering to a do a bit of shopping, etc.

I think he has fallen out with all of them at some stage. Mrs neighbour was almost in tears (she said that no one had offered to help them apart from family). Just found it sad that they are so unused to people being nice to them that they have over-reacted (she also brought us a carved pumpkin that she had done with her grandson yesterday).
