what is my neighbour up to?

TV and film companies use houses for filming dramas and sit-coms etc. Maybe it is one of these?

It could be anything!

Why don't you pop next door and ask, then come back and let us know.

I once saw some filming going on outside a neighbour's house. I thought they were maybe filming some kind of DIY programme, as I knew they were doing up the house. A few months later I was watching a programme about the Asian tsunami, and up popped the footage and my neighbour. Turned out he had lost his brother in Thailand.

Yep, it's a brothel 100%. Pop round and ask for an appointment see what's happens. Might come in handy? (No pun intended)

To be fair to the OP, there is good reason for people wanting to know if their neighbours are about to move, rent their house out, or whatever. There are enough threads here about difficult neighbours, so it's natural to worry about something upsetting the status quo, or alternatively, to rejoice if an unhappy situation seems to be about to end.

It's also human nature to be curious about the lives of those living nearby. It's a sad neighbourhood where no one cares who's living around them, or shares what they're doing, or the joys and problems they experience.

Where the OP has acted oddly, is asking on-line what's going on, when there's no reason to suppose that any of us has a better idea than they do. They admitted it was an odd post, so I hope they will take the lighthearted replies in the spirit they were sent.

Those of you saying, "It's none of your business," in one sense you're correct, but think on. Do you never gossip at work, or show even a slight spark of interest when a skip arrives outside a house nearby?

Really?

Where i use to live the people opposite only ever use to sit at the dining table (it was a through lounge). Sitting on the lounge furniture would have left them to low to see what was going on. If anything was happening in the street you could almost see them running upstairs to peer out of the bedroom window.

Here's a radical idea - you could always pop next door and ask them round for a cup of tea and then see what you can find out. You know, talk to them or something.....

Do you know that next door owns their house? The visitor could be the landlady.

This is a bit of an odd post but just wondering what could be happening nextdoor..... a very smartly dressed lady in a Merc visited last week, i saw her having a good peer round the garden and into ours and I heard her say, as she left, we'll leave it like that and if there's any thing you want to change let me know and I can come back. She was carrying a large, heavy looking bag.

Today she parked up outside took some pictures of the front of the house and left.

any ideas???

Not enough information for anything but speculation as others have done. My bet would either be they are selling the house or improving it.

My cousin used to live next door to a nosey woman. It was virtually impossible to get in or out of the house without she was there in the front garden: "Going out, then?", "Been somewhere nice?".

It always puzzled me how she managed it, she must have spent every waking hour at the front window. Even if you parked a few yards up the road and tried to creep in she would still be there!

I would hate to have a neighbour like the OP . In all honesty OP don't you have something better to do with your time?
