| | As most know, I have moved and got to meet my new neighbor yesterday. 
While out in the yard digging a drainage ditch, I happened to look up and glance towards my neighbors. What should my eyes see?? A man in a suit of Armor!! With a Jousting Pole!! Now I admit to thinking my tea might have been spiked. But nope, it was for real and he even came over and asked me if I "Jousted" (my first thought then was ..."This fellow is wanting to stick me with a pole! "
Any stories of your neighbors?

Generally in Britain neighbours don't associate (much). We have a good reason not too, with one of ours, anyway. His family own two Quad Bikes and a Moto-Cross bike, and they drive them up and down the road at the side of our house. On more than one occasion I've wanted to heave a brick over the fence and brain the little buggers that don't wear helmets.

Weasel, you must be feeling quite at home, as if you've been living there for entire life!
Some of my nearest neighbour being chickens, and the dominant male of the pack (of 26, we think) cannot make c0ck-a-doodle-doo properly. He sounds as if he's about to be strungled.

| | Ah Minerva, from one crazed neighborhood to the next, Weasel just seems to have all the luck. 
I haven't walked thru the arce and a half of woods to the north of my place...my brother-in-law though did and he told me once he got to the fence separating the land, the neighbor hollared "Step one foot over that fence and meet Mr. 357!" ..I believe I will wait a while before getting to know him.

A fellow who is obviously involved in one of the various Medieval/Renaissance fan groups. I wouldn't waste my time with a lance, though. Two swords, chain mail, and lots of beer.
Let's see...my neighbor in Tennessee was rather anti-social. He had several cows, one of which was a "mad cow."  Really, this cow would run wild, and was actually rather belligerent. She would come on to the property at odd hours making a very loud ruckus. Speak loudly, and carry a sledgehammer, that was my motto then.
My neighbors here - don't know them, rarely ever see them. This is a sleepy suburb in Tyler, Texas, where people are...well, for lack of a better word, normal.

I would have to say something...just the type of person I am.

My secret headquarters don’t get many visitors, though I have had one neighbor drop by recently. I was in full battle armor practicing impaling unarmed peasants when this long-haired varmint saddled up and started babbling. I was about to run him through for the interruption, but decided to let him go for the time being… It may be possible to zap his brain with some current and make a mindless henchman out of him.
