Today we are invited to talk meaningfully to our nextdoor neighbour... I know my nextdoor neighbours reasonably well and they are currently away, so that's a tad tricky. So I'm going to have to find a way to adapt the action!
Here the options:
I'M A LITTLE SHY
Start with a smile and a wave, instead of avoiding eye contact! For bonus points, pop a 'hello!' note through their door.
FEELING A LITTLE BOLDER
Introduce yourself. If you can go beyond small talk, do. Make an extra effort to remember details.
I'M ALREADY FRIENDS WITH MY NEIGHBOURS
Great – so let’s take that friendship to the next level. Make today the day to organise a social; a shared meal, trip to the cinema or even just a healthy walk around the block together.
So, what will I do? I have a cunning plan! I will get some nice blank cards (I have loads at church) write a little message on them, pop in a small bar of chocolate and give them to all eleven neighbours in my block :-)
There, now I've said it, I have to do it!
