I've no interest what someone halfway up the street is doing and couldn't keep an eye on their house anyway. I think there was something put through the door a year ago about something similar but it went straight in the bin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 16941 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I joined the Facebook residents' group for our new neighbourhood before we even moved in. It helps you to get an idea of the place, for better or worse (often worse). Plus it meant we knew about the local school summer fete on our first weekend, where we promptly steamed in and won a bunch of prizes in the raffle ahead of the locals. It's good to make friends. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 38636 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I say hello to a few of my neighbours, put each others bins in if we're the first ones about. It's not a big deal, it's what always has happened both here and my last house. I suppose it depends where you are and whatever circumstances you're in. Makes sense in some places where people might move more regularly but I prefer normal, organic friendliness. People are generally older where live, there's a few bungalows here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same as here but you can click on boxes that lets others know when you're having a cuppa or a shite.
