Tonight I meet my neighbours…..

by magnetoboldtoo

in Christmas, ramblings

You know them….. previously seen in such posts as:

Letter to my neighbours….

and

Bugger off will ya?

If you have not read these posts before, click on them to catch up.

It’s OK, we will wait……..

A few weeks ago a strange looking couple came to my door. It was 8pm, a bit late for the Jehovahs Witness suits, but they were clutching trifold papers. So I opened the door ready to give them a piece of my mind for interrupting my TV time.

Turns out they were my neighbours. Who would have thought that he survived all this time and he actually had a wife with hair the colour of Santa’s suit?

They were inviting us to a Block Christmas Party.

‘Now we know that Boo has dietary issues, so just let me know what he likes to eat and I will get it’

I gave her a dark look. What the FUCK? I have never seen this woman before, I thought her husband was dead in front of the television for Christs sake, and she knows that Boo has ‘dietary issues’ and HIS FUCKING NAME?

‘How do you know that?’ I start scanning the ceiling for bugs or video cameras and my mind races back to the times when there were no kids in the house and it was just me and Mario-porn-star……. OMG!!!!

‘Oh we know Sue and we drove her out to your parents house a few weeks ago to pick up the oven….. Your mother is such a wonderful woman with everything she does for you and surviving breast cancer and caring for your father…….’

Oh PUL-EEEESE!!!!

So tonight we finally get to meet our neigbours. The ones mentioned previously, the new family across the road (next door to the freaks) the chick down the road who it turns out is in charge of approving Boo’s funding, the freaky goth who used to go to school with Moo, and the old bloke who apparently owns half the block.

And there will be alcohol. And cricket.

I will update later. Should make for an interesting post methinks.

VE: well it starts at 6pm, so 6.01? Oh and you probably had the shortest call evah with my mum. She tell you how awesome she is?

Kim: The streaker would be Boo. You can count on it. Probably prefaced with ‘ Gawd damn, thats Uranus!’

I can’t wait for the post about it! Should be blogworthy.

Well…what happened?? It is 10.47pm & no update yet! It has to be good!

Did you set up chairs & watch the freaky neighbours do their stuff?

10 Bettina December 7, 2007 at 10:47 pm

hope you had an *ahem* interesting time!! Am waiting with great anticipation for all the gory details!!

What with the beer and the cricket… presumably you’ll have the bat when you ask them why they always seem to set up the chairs on the lawn when you’re gardening… then you can tell the feral guy you’ve noticed him peeping through the hedge at you and ask him whether he’s getting off ok or whether, perhaps you should visit your yard in a peephole bra and crotchless panties… oh there’s so much warped and depraved stuff you can ask them.

I can’t wait to hear what you did!

Cheers

I love social gatherings but that sounds like a bit of a challenge.
Cheers

What!
Hope it went well …. so many possibilities for what might have happened….. Will be popping in a lot today hoping you have updated I suppose ;)
I’m finally somwhere where I have nice neighbours – well one lot anyways, there’s a HUGE hedge on the other side. They even looked after my boys the other night :o

Can’t wait to hear about how the night went. Hmmm, as the others said so may warped, crazy possibilities. The next update should be good.
