Neighbours are the bane of ones existence

Oh dear, our new neighbours sound the pits! We used to get on with the old ones and grazed our horses there until Brian left the hose running into the water trough which empitied their water tank =no water in the house and they took umbrage - locked the gate so that we could not graze there anymore. Alo, they would not allow us to put up a proper fence around their house so of course Megan walked into their house and the bedrooms, and Womble ate all the bird seed... but they wouldn't let us stop them properly. Anyway, it obviously caused a problem - not by any intention of ours and after that they did not talk to us - which was a bit uncomfortable but otherwise they were OK neighbours - very quiet.

Now they have sold and the rumours are not good.

Plot 1 reported:

"We met the new buyer of plot 2. Lets just say he is definitely not quite the country life person. Very city slicker, very loud, very in your face type of person. He has a little too much to say about things like our african people, religion etc. He says he will be getting a ex-constable who hates african people to stay on the plot who will patrol the area with a shot gun. He also wants to run his business from plot 2 and says he will only be around on weekends, he says he will come in - make a noise and then leave.
Im personally not too sure what all that means."

eeeek.... what noise? What if the ex-constable gets trigger happy? and then.....

"They stay in Meyersdal in Alberton. His is a Christian like me and Clay. But he is very blatant about it (Sort of over-religious) if you know what I mean. If he see's you not a Christian, even if he doesnt know you at all, he'll start preaching to you straight away and will try to forcefully convert you on the spot. But in the same breath he'll tell you how it hates K...ff (Africans). A bit strange ??
He has a daughter (+-14) & I think a older son (+-17/18). I didn't meet the wife as she wasn't with them on Saturday."


Hmmmm... so phoned the estate ageent to find out what kind of business they were planning to run from next door = paint mixing. = Fumes? Waste? Workers in and out? Oh dear......
