This particular neighbour once invited the other owners (4 maisonettes) to an election night dinner (possibly the last but one) and blithely assumed we were all also tories by virtue of the fact we live in a tory borough. I mean, I work in fin services regulatory advice so I get it for me but the lesbian couple who are both ex-social workers... seems like a leap. In any case, she has always been alarmingly out of touch and seemed to embrace a casual nastiness, not to mention treating the rest of us like employees when anything needed doing around the place. We generally tolerate her but she's stepped over the line with my wife (who has zero tolerance for b*llsh*t) a few times and been told her fortune, as my Dad would say.

Having been thoroughly acquainted with the 'Embankment Wall of Wind' over the years, on Monday I was accosted by it's chippy upstart City cousin. The 'London Bridge WoW' kinda sneaks up and punches just as you pass Adelaide House. Went from a decent lick to sideways to a crawl. Luckily it was deserted at lunchtime. Think its only a storm phenomenon though.

Was up at 4am the other day and noticed a bunch of youngins playing on the communal lawns next door. Maybe six of them and two Mums as well as an older sibling keeping its distance. Was lovely to watch them hooning about, rolling down the grassy slope and pronking about after each other without a care in the world.
We have a single young one who sleeps in our neighbour's garden but have never seen so many all gamboling about.
Decided not to mention it to the dog.
