7.31 Ten Minutes Late
New Neighbours have moved in.
(Into next-door, not into the flats where the ManWithTheWolf lives.)
These are the ones who knocked on the door and asked the Old Neighbours if they might feel like selling their house. And they decided they did. And now they’re moving to France to start a new life. Just like that.
I’m not jealous, because I don’t harbour any desire to live in France, but I envy their recklessness.
And I sort of wonder what would have happened if the Old Neighbours had been out and they'd knocked on our door instead.
Anyway, the new lot…
They seem to have a shiny red sports car in the garage and his & hers people carriers on the drive. We’ll see.
