I don't know my neighbours very well, but in the last few years I had a couple of falls and the closest neighbour heard me calling out and rang the ambulance and stayed until they arrived.  Sometimes he has taken my bin out or brought it in.  (I'm selfish enough to wish someone did that every week as my arthritis is a real problem). 🙂

 

My other neighbours I haven't spoken to in years but we've never had any disagreements.  Both neighbours have dogs.  I have a cat but she isn't allowed outside except in her own enclosed run.  Much safer for her as their dogs don't like cats.

 

Still, I don't see the neighbours very often which is probably is just as well as unfortunately I am terrible with names and I've forgotten theirs!

thats a nice neighbour, sounds like he doesn't want to intrude but there at the important times.   Its funny how things could escalate, in our situation, we have trees and shrubs hanging over our fence, we could be spiteful and cut them throw them over (which we are perfectly entitlted to do). However I don't want a war starting, I just want a peaceful existance.   In our last house our neighbour would bring our bins and our neighbours bins in and also mow our naturestrip, we never asked he just did.  Another thing (im on a roll) he has 2 small dogs, I have one....they bark at each other through the fence every so often, Im the only one that tells my dog to stop, never heard him once tell them to be quiet.

The dog thing can be a real problem. We have just had new people move into a house a few doors away. They go away for days at a time and the dogs bark regularly while they are away. A real pain.
