Mrs Drinkall from number 21 has just popped round to "borrow" an onion to enable her to make onion gravy. She was scantily dressed but I wasn't falling for it - Norris has gone to his sister's in Cleethorpes. It made me wonder if anyone else has ever lent vegetables to their next door neighbour.

This thread has already got that sinking feeling - could this be the one?

I had a 'neighbour from Hell' who was forever calling round (half dressed) to borrow my Hoover, a cup of sugar, use the phone, take her boyfriend's stuff back to his mother's because she's dumped him, the list goes on.

A fortnight ago she moved! Hooray! But I lost my Hoover...

Sad, lonely old blokes always coppit, don't they...?

BTW the company I work for is called Drinkle & Mann Ltd... how curious!!

I had a next door neighbour who often 'popped round' (in tight jeans & T-shirt revealing an extremely well developed musculature)on occasion, in order to borrow my psilocybe semilanceata. He then partook of this with his dearly beloved boyfriend....ahhhh what a sad loss to the female of the species.

I had a neighbour in Cleethorpes (fully clad) who once borrowed a green chilli (sp??) and never brought it back, though I gathered from her husband, during a later chat over the vegetable plot, that he had done so and with some vigour. He suggested that I should never lend her another one.

Norris's sister isn't about 70 is she? Ah no, correction, it wasn't she who was doing the borrowing, was it?

Ancient Egyptians worshipped the onion as a symbol of eternity, onions were often placed in the Pharoah's tombs.
The onion is also well known in ancient cultures for it's aphrodisiacal properties. This is why old people with allotments always grow onions & onions are probably the most popular item to be borrowed by one's next door neighbours.

I had a neighbour in Grimsby who used to borrow my hoover and then put it away in her cupboard. I left Grimsby shortly after.

I had a neighbour that borrowed my male guinea pig. He then sold the offspring & didn't give me anything for stud fees!

Why should you get the stud fees - it was the guinea pig that did the job .....or was it ?

I am totally outraged. People get stud fees for the services of their dogs, stallions & bulls, why shouldn't I cash in on poor, furry Fido's (thats the guinea pig's name) stalwart efforts in the procreation department. I wouldn't have spent it on enjoying myself, parties,loose men & lots of drinking, but would have bought the wee fellow a penthouse hutch.

Should have had a signed contract before loaning out the guinea boar - I always specified pick of the litter...

I used to know a chap who studied Animal Husbandry at college. As far as I can remember, he was much more intent in denying paternity than claiming any stud fees ! What was his son's name.... oh yes I remember it was Baaaaasil.
