    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.

    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.

    I ahve spent about 2-and-a-half hours listing on e bay

    had already prepped the pictures though and dione a generic blurb for the items as they are all similar.

    Am a bit cross

    Yesterday bloke across the road wandered over 'for a chat' and to pass on the gossip (he's about the same age as my mum) and in the course of the conversation happened to mention thatanother neighbour thinks he (bloke across the road) 'is bedding me' (exact phrase!). And my next door neighbours have just mentioned it to me, too.

    reason I am cross is the kids...

    DD isn't going to be impressed by the gossip - and gossip it is.

    Not much I can do though, is there?

    This is being stirred up by the bloke who annoys most of us round he by parking a blooming commercial vehicle on the street...

    Tax return done - another frog eaten. On a bit of a role but all paper-worked out for the moment. Going to have an hour in the garden - still have the food shop to do.

    First time I am back on the site as I couldn't get it it to load all week for some reason

    So I am halfway through tackling my lists - and picked up 2 new curtain poles for the price of 1 to be fitted tomorrow from my frog list

    Ok I'm lounging about a bit today but will be cracking on in an hour or so!

    It's ridiculous. Neither I nor the neighbour are married so no issue there - but he is just !!!!!! stirring to deflect attention away from his own un-neighbourly behaviour.

    Last time I ask the bloke-across-the-road for help though, now, because of what A (the bloke with the lorry) thinks. The bloke-across-the-road (let's call him B) kindly took me to pick my car up when the radiator leaked and I had to drop it in the garage. Also B is retired, in all day and keeps an active eye on ALL our houses - like having our very own neighbourhood watch.
