My neighbourhood

Okay it was late last night, about 11:30pm. I was watching TV when I heard this real weird humming noise. I opened the front door. The cul de sac was quiet, all was still. The odd gust of wind whipped up but that's about all. I was wearing my comforatable vacation togs. I walked out still hearing the hum. It was coming from next door. We're all detached but the bass was travelling. Turned out it was my neighbour's TV. He has a wall-mounted 50" thing. It was ridiculously loud.

I looked around and across and up at the neighbour's house across expecting to see Ray (my neighbour) standing in the bedroom in darkness smoking a cigar. That's just what it was like. Probably the closest I've ever come to feeling like I was in The 'Burbs. It was a weird moment. All quiet, investigating a weird noise in my leisure pants and baggy t shirt, looking round to see if any other neighbour's were looking out. Was cool

Wow, what an awesome yet eerie experience!

 

[Uncle_Reuban]

Awesome!! I wish something cool happened in my neighborhood. You know other than that family that moved in next door who tried to kill me.

 

[Art_Weingartner]

LMAO!!!

Red Rover Red Rover, let Chris go over!

LOL, this sounds like a cool suburbian experience. In addition you neighbour's name is Ray! How great is that? Did you whisper his name while snooping around in his backyard.

(*Ray and his wife are watching Jeopardy*)

"Pssst, Ray, Hey, Ray, psssst"

(*knocking against the window, crouching down for a second*)

Ray: "Mmmmh, that's Chris!"

Wife (*bugged*): "What does he want?"

Ray: "I don't know but I'll be back for final Jeopardy."

Hahaha lol

I am still gutted that the small white poodle who looks JUST like Queenie and is called Bonnie (I SWEAR TO GOD) has died. She used to walk up and down the cul de sac, often taking a piss and dump in people's yards.

LOL a dog looking like Queenie which is named Bonnie, a neighbour named Ray, a cul-de-sac, admit it, you chose your place to live just because of things like these!

Man, I wish I had some small references like these in my neighbourhood as well. No Queenies, no Ray's, no people who bury corpses in their backyard. Boring.
