Neighbour concern - part 2

When the first sun sparks show up and the temperature gets above 15 degrees you’re practically considered an idiot if you stay inside in the Netherlands. So I’m writing this outside on my Macbook. It sounds very romantic, but believe me since our cat is using the backyard as one giant litter box, it’s not that great Wink

This time of year is a great excuses for all the neighbours to get outside. Resulting in mechanical do-it-yourself sounds and motorcycle noise. I’m under the impression that about half the men in midlife crisis purchase a motorcycle…

I don’t know how you feel about this, but I get very curious about my neighbours’ whereabouts. For instance the neighbour to our right always seems to make a certain sound, like she’s constantly walking around the garden on her flip-flops. Today I peaked outside and saw her indeed walking around, but topless. Haha, I found this quite amusing. The previous owner had already told us about this, so I guess he’d looked outside the same bathroom window as well. Personally, I would never walk around topless. I don’t see the point of getting evenly tanned and mother nature gave me small boobies (which I don’t mind at all Smile ).

A family with a 2 year old girl is living on the other side. Not so long ago a new resident got to live on their balcony. It’s a rabbit named Frutsel, it didn’t took me long to figure that out since they talk a lot. The girl is quite funny though. I’ve seen her trying to feed the bunny cookies and today she was holding a cellphone against it’s ear. Frutsel wasn’t that amused though, he was sitting there frozen, like she was about to eat him. Not much later her mother told her not to jump up and down next to Frutsel, because otherwise he would stop eating again. Poor fellow, I hope he’ll get more relaxed eventually. The girl looked down from the balcony and spotted Kuchi laying on my lap. She pointed down and shouted: “Kittycat!” while making miaow-like sounds. Kuchi look up, relieved to see that she wasn’t inside reach. I guess he doesn’t like kids that much Grin

Oh, I was finished writing this when the father of the girl came home. The mother snarled at him, apparently they’re not in the best mood. Yes, sitting outside in the garden beats all the television soaps out there…

  2. I was blog hopping and I happened across your site. I have been wanting to pixel for awhile, but your site has really made me interested now. I am searching like crazy for a good pixeling program for Mac that is free ( I am not big on spending money for computer programs ).

    I just thought I let you know that I posted a link for you on my latest post. I hope you get a lot of visitors because your site is great Razz I plan to come back to look at your tutorials for pixeling when I get a good program.

    Haha! How interesting… it’s like watching TV in the comfort of your backyard. ;]
    I think Frutsel will be fine…. O_o The little girl sounds so funny.

    @ Chloe; haha, thank you for your comment! I did notice that Frustel was eating today ^_^ (when the family was away).

    @ Nickolena; thank you so much for blogging about kao-ani! Unfortunately I don’t know a Mac based pixel program, I will let you know when I find one.

    @ Becky; good luck finding a new home Smile When we just moved here last year here was only one student living next to us, he was pretty quiet. So you never know what can change. But your approach is absolutely right! We’ve found out a lot of things about other houses we had in mind, by just visiting it at different parts of the day.

    “Frutsel” is the CUTEST name for a rabbit!
