Etiquette for meeting new neighbours in a village

[KentPhilip]

I know this bloke who ran a bar for a few years<cough>. The biggest money spinner was the fruities. Make sure the place is empty then play them till you get a hold. Then move the reels around to three lemons, or whatever.

you aint seen me right ?

How do you move the reels round - there's a glass panel in front of them..

you can take the back panel off the machine, or if its alarmed, saw one of the heads off a side nut and use a wire coat hanger

If one has just moved into a house in a fairly remote village, what is the drill for meeting the neighbours?

Basically, does one go and knock on their doors and introduce oneself, or do you wait until they knock on yours?

Although not particularly interested either way, as I'll probably meet most in due course anyway one way or another, I don't want to come over as a rude recluse.

This problem doesn't arise much in London flats, as most people studiously ignore their neighbours! There were tenants in some of the 10 flats of the building I was in that I never once spoke to in 20 years.

A man moved into a village. Within minutes there came a knock at the door.

It was the vicar.

"We're having a bit of a bash at ours this evening, wanted to know if you'd come along"

"Sure, what time?"

"From 9. It's an adult themed party. Nothing too heavy, light bondage, candle wax, chains, barbed wire, that sort of thing. Feel free to bring a bottle"

"Er, right. What does one wear?"

" shouldn't matter, it's only me and thee."

When I moved to a small village in Scotland, they were very kind.

One of them came out and said there was a Ceilidh that night in my honour, I said I was very flattered and what would that entail? The guy said 'lots of drink and lovemaking!!'

Sounds good I said, who will be there?

Just the two us, he said.......
