Unpacking since Friday, broke and bone tired. However, day one in Weymouth was already more of a social success than Ramsgate ever was. Thrilled at how much friendlier Dorset is.

    social success

    Is that code for "my new neighbours aren't complete wankers"

    (Also congrats on the move/job)

    What a pleasure to be understood. Though in fairness there was one genuinely friendly neighbour in Kent and one who bothered to fake it, but the rest were aloof beyond words.

    In contrast, the first time we visited town a guy invited me to knock on his door to ride bikes, and on our first weekend living here a neighbour stopped to chat for ten minutes.

    Think I'm going to need a new social battery. I haven't charged mine since about 2019, and it's not looking good.

    My street is pretty good, I invited half of them to my birthday at the local and they all came. It's good to have good neighbours

    You absolute tw#t!

    I bloody knew it. Well f#ck you. It's my birthday in October and you can bet your neighbourly arse I'll only be inviting the other half of the street to the local. I'm sure they'll all come and we'll have a much better time than you all did.

    Apart from the dicks at number 5 obviously. But f#ck them and their 4 cars. Parking all up the road and keeping their drive empty so it's easier to put their bin out a day early.

    Dicks.

    Jon, we tried inviting you remember? But you spat at my feet and kept calling my partner "the Devil". We laughed it off until you nailed that goats head to our door and called the police on us for walking on your side of the road. Then you rallied Mad Mick and his crew to join arms and sing kumbaya outside my window at 3am to purge my "sexy spirit" from the house. I mean, it's a bit much. Anyway, enjoy your party and say hi to Mick for me
