Accip74 7,112 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) So we moved into this place maybe 18 months ago & our neighbours on one side have been really great, but today the thing I've been dreading for a while happened! My terrier got under their fence & nailed their goat. I'd actually been talking to my neighbour over the fence while she was feeding the goat & while the conversation went from one thing to another, my terrier suddenly appeared behind her. I immediately tried to call him over & told her to grab him, but the goat suddenly come out of the shed & it was game on! The terrier nailed the goat with no hesitation like I knew he would & they were off down the meadow with my neighbour screaming behind them. I got him off & of course apologising profusely, of which she would hear none of when she'd calmed down. Just one of those things she said. When her husband got in I went down & checked the goat with him & there was a nasty gash & we spoke about this on the way back to the house. A quiet, level headed man, it was hard to gauge his thoughts. A bit awkward I must say! As we got back into their kitchen the first thing he said was " do want a beer?" What fcuking great neighbours!! Edited November 3, 2017 by Accip74 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ginger beard 4,652 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 my old deerhound nailed a cat on the neighbours drive infront of them. i never got offered a beer. she screamed at me ''i hope your dog is insured'. i said calmly back ''i hope your cat is,look at the state of it'' she gave me a £500 vets bill.i gave her £50 and told him and her to f**k off. other neighbour asked me if i owned a wolfhound,i said no a deerhound. she said it's in my field and has killed a deer. i said 'great' i'll have it',never did. but i had the rest.

WILF 47,221 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 My nearest neighbour is an Austrian couple about 3/4 mile down the road and they keep goats and chickens. She has a reputation as a very hard nosed type of woman. when I first moved here my old lurcher and terrier took themselves for a walk down the road and wound up in their yard with the chickens. She was absolutely hysterical, so I let her go on for a while and said “I’m very sorry this has upset you, if anything is dead come round, tell me what is dead and I will replace everything 2 for 1” She looked at me like I was joking......and started to go on again so I said “no, I’m serious, 2 for 1 and the very best of whatever you want.....you will have it next day” I went up there the following morning and asked her what was dead......nothing she said, I just got a bit panicky. so I said, “well give it a couple of days and if anything dies unexpectly and you think it’s my fault just come and tell me” and that was the end of it.......she has been nice as pie ever since, the locals can’t beleive it because to everyone else she is a ball breaker ! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Mrs is Austrian (sour faced cnut ?) and I've a couple of mates who are Austrian too... they definitely have a touch of miserable about them. Never seen one smile, without complaining in the next sentence ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
