Scary NeighboursMy immediate neighbours are lovely. But the next house down from that? Crimminy biscuits - he's a 70 year old taxi driver who loves to tell me at length about the people he's put in hospital and how Soho is "run by Maltese ponces." How scary are your neighbours?

I used to live in the flat above a mentalistYou know, the usual - alcoholic, screaming matches every other Tuesday, loud crap music etc.
I once met this charming lady to have a quiet word about the music (which was keeping me awake). She was already a bit drunk (at 6pm) and within the first three minutes of our meeting, informed me that:
- her son hated her and refused to see her
- her former husband used to sleep with prostitutes
- she was obsessive-compulsive and went mental if someone moved anything in her flat.
At some point in the conversation - after I'd managed to get a word in about keeping the music down, seeing as I worked in the day etc - she leaned towards me conspiratorially and said:
"I hope you don't mind me saying this but... you're a bit weird."
