some or all of this might be entirely made up and I might spend a happy evening indoors with my family and a bottle of fine Whisky.
LOL, I was thinking... the farther north, the more they integrate with their neighbours for a sec..., good to hear it's all bullshit 😀
Here..., it's non existent.. down south you may as well not exist.
Some of our neighbours are quite community oriented and go around the houses wishing Happy New Year and coming in for a drink. Some years I have hidden with the lights out but I fear that I might be getting known as anti social so have decided to make the effort not to hide this year but Nobody is getting to stay long!
We are obsessed with new year up here, it is very bizarre. At least these days I am in the warm and not in some square in the freezing cold trying to hold my pee in!
That's not at all like here, even in the frozen north. I barely know the neighbours. One side lives a bitch who won the lottery, the other side are OK and opposite lives a drug lord.
Man, you have done proper characters there! Our neighbours are all old and restored practically. Apart from the parents. It's quite depressing suburbia!!
Drug dealer has a fleet of Audi's and BMW, and does not work. What else could he be?
That sounds exactly like a drug dealer!
