Well I had a fun day yesterday. The Jubilee Street party I have been helping plan finally happened after a year of organising. It was fab! masq and I started the day having to string zillions of balloons that were filling my house together as the little kids I had been promised as slaves never showed up
Still we got it done.
It was really really really lovely to get everyone together. I have lived here for years and I never knew (with the exception of one person ) how nice everyone is. I thought my nextdoor neighbour was not very nice but she and her partner are absolutely lovely, as are her kids - it was a real eyeopener.
A good friend of mine did a set of live music and he went down really well - plus another friend from choir who has a proper trained opera voice led us all in things like Jerusalem and Land Of Hope And Glory. It was totally bizarre only in Britain behaviour but it was good. masq likened it to a Monty Python sketch
I was the photographer and spent a large portion of my day asking ppl if I could take their pic and telling them it was going on FB and was that OK. Everyone was cool with it tho so that is good. Once I had deleted the rubbish pics there were still nearly 300
Anyhow if you are thinking of whether or not to talk to your neighbours give it ago as they may well be a nice bunch
Hugs all
