Know your nextdoor neighbours by first name?

veryangryman

I dont think many people do. I know mine on the right, but not the left. Just trying to get a general feel for how many people do.

Neighbour Dan watches my kid and Neighbour Chuck mows my lawn!
I love my neighbourhood!:p

Nope - just to say hi to (apartment complex). They're very nice and have always assisted me with girlie car-related trouble. :pac:

If your second neighbours family name is Norris.

DO NOT:

Ride his wife
wake him when hes asleep
steal his drink
not laugh at his jokes

Scrambled egg

Know most of the people on my road by their first names and have regular dealings with them. Its nice , and its one reason I never want to live in one of those new housing estates. They lack any real soul and community spirit . Inner city FTW!!!

I live in a village. I know everyone in it. I was born here, moved away for years and then came back again a few years ago. Sometimes when I drive through and I see all the same friendly faces waving at me as I pass by, I die a little inside.

Gavin "shels"

I know nearly my whole road by first name or the older folk by Mr. or Mrs.

No WAY!

Gotta try this! An excuse for us to have a winey night in tomorrow!

i know most people along my end of the road. Its nice to have a few people to speak to.

Kinda awkward being secluded from your own neighbours.

stovelid

Yeah, I know both sides by name (and their kids) and would chat to them every few days. Few fools on the road that look the other way. Generally the ones with the most ostentatious cars.

No way near like where I grew up though where I knew the names of every family on the street.

It was all fields there once.

Yeah, I know my neighbours by name for about 4 houses on either side of me.
I actually leave my front door wide open when my kids are outside playing (not unlocked, wide open) I mentioned this at work and was met with disbelief all round.
Is it that unusual these days?

not weird at all, i leave my door wide open if my little one is playing outside. sometimes i wanna pummel the other kids for wailin in at me though.

i know all the neighbours names around me bar about three houses.

a house two doors down was broken into two nights ago, 06 passat gone, so it has us all out yackin and making sure everyone is being extra safe.

I have no idea of my next door neighbours names. Scum to the right and Hungarians to the left that I will say hello to when passing.

God, what's so unbelievable about it?! Makes sense if they're young - you can keep an eye on them.

All my neighbours are ignorant ***** so I am glad I don't know them.

Mine where I grew up were called Anne and Barry, when I was a little kid I used to think the books were about them when they were children.

Don't have a next door neighbour now.

keano_afc

I know the ones on our right fairly well coz they're a nice family.
Dont want to know our neighbours on the left as they're an inconsiderate noisy bunch of knackers.

BluesBerry

I know the neighbours in the left but the neighbours on the right are weirdos that seem to like to watch their telly at a very loud setting I dont want to know them nobody really else does on the street either
Anyone that has tried to say hello to them they look through them and ignore them noisy cnuts they are and weird :mad:

Raedwald

House is vacant to the right and would say hello to the ones on the left.

My road is mainly made up of old families so the women tend to gossip about anything and everything that goes on in the neighbours lives.

TBH i have no interest in knowing who lives on my road or what their names are. I'll stick to my life and they can stick to theirs.

monkeypants

Yeah, I know the immediate neighbours on all sides. They'll take in my bins and stuff like that when I'm not around.
