My new neighbourhood

RayPeterson comes up with the winning idea. That mailbox needs a closer inspection.

Kris, I heard some rumbling in the bushes last night. Maybe it was some of the neighbours trying to peek through my windows? We already introduced ourselves to the neighbours we share property lines with, so that they don't vault over our fences (hedges).

Also, an old man was sweeping the driveway next door yesterday. We introduced ourselves and he said he wasn't the owner of the house. It was his sons, but he was on vacation in the united states. Really??....

Maybe he's got the tied up in the old basement!

You should cordially invite him over to you and have a round of sardines and pretzels with him. With a nice neighborly chat you will find out much more than with just snooping around. And if the small-talk becomes too much you can still shout at him asking him "What have you got in the cellar, Herr [enter Slavic name here]?"

Now you're starting to sound like Carol!
 
I seriously have to TRY that combo - Sardines and Pretzels, I've never tried that...yes, I've eaten them on their own...but not as that BURBS combo.

 
Went for a walk yesterday and unsuspiciously walked by the "Klopeks" looking house to check out the mailbox... "The Karlsens".. sounds more swedish than slavic.

We're having a housewarming party in a couple of weeks where weve invited all the neighbours over for a drink and some bbq. I'll poke around and see what I find.

The Karlsens...They do sound a little "Burbish." While they're over at your housewarming party, it would be a perfect chance for someone else to do some snooping around in their back yard...

Affirmative. The Karlsens sounds suspicious to me, good strategy to invite them all over for a BBQ, then you have them pegged and can find out what they're all about ;)

 
You should definitely check them out, they may sound Swedish but they could worship satan nonetheless. It's what's underneath the surface, so you gotta dig!
 
Watch out, those Swedish meatballs could actually be some kind of Satanic pate!
 
Well, I met the next door neighbours who have returned from their vacation. Or one of them. He's a middle aged man named Finn, and he told me he was a doctor.

I instantly heard this line in my head "Won't it be nice to have a doctor in the neighbourhood?" :D

I think they're clean. I think Bonnie and Carol are right.
