I have lived on this street for 23 years - there are 22 houses - there has been a general churn of occupying families plus some of us veterans. I am happy to say I am friends with the families and occupant of 19 of the houses plus I am on nodding terms with one other. The two I am not are new arrivals. I am also friends with people on adjoining streets too. I am outward going and will talk to anyone so having homes on Grimshaw Lane and Towncroft Ave in Middleton I had many friends and in 3 properties down south I was friends with a lot of neighbours.
I keep hearing about loneliness and people not knowing their neighbour and I am confused - why don't /can't people speak to other people and build a relationship ?
Whats the experience of other Bluemooners around the globe?
