Especially when they use the Chinese year. It's unfair to point out that Scott Hogan was born in the year of the donkey. Uncalled for. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I've got a @Chindie-esque situation similar to jigsaw-gate. WFH yesterday, and about 2pm, I go out to put my rubbish in the bins outside. As I'm walking down the stairs, I see a bunch of keys on the doormat of the flat beneath me. I pick up and rattle the door... no answer. They must have dropped them on the way out. I take the keys back to mine, write them a note explaining I have them and blue-tac it to their front door. Fine. I was expecting that they would come round later that day. Nope. Nothing last night, and nothing today, so far. Over 24 hours later. Now, I need to go out this evening for a bit and also tomorrow to do a few errands. I suddenly feel as though I have a duty of care for these keys. Pus i'll be out all day at the office a couple of days next week. Its annoyed me more than it should! Thing is, I don't know who lives downstairs, as mad as it sounds. Every time I see someone, its a different face! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take a quiet crack den over noisy neighbours! 1 minute ago, AvfcRigo82 said: Whore house? I don't think so! Never been any bother there. Rumour is, that the flat is owned by a company and they put staff in there when they come up to the Midlands to work. Sounds feasible, as I know Goodyear own a couple of flats in a nearby development. Works out cheaper than hotel bills, plus they have an appreciating asset.

Take your note off their door and put the keys back where you found them. Suddenly the worry and shit you're becoming anxious about has vanished. What keys?

lapal_fan Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I used to face all the ornamental owls the wrong way, but that's a very specific type of person. Maybe you could do it with some blue drink cans and Staffordshire bull terrier ornaments. I'm guessing those things because I'm insinuating you live in a very low class, common area. That's amusing, isn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's amusing, isn't it? I have no retort as I currently have a can of 'Prime' in the fridge. That relegates me several social classes, to about the level of pond life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
