Why are some people so

grumpy .

In our little street over the last few months , there has been extensive demolition and re -building of a property.There has been some inconvience and mess , but the local builders have been fantastic in making things safe and tidy at the end of each day.

The work is now finished and looks good, improving the whole area.
The new occupiers, a young couple and their parents have given us all an invitation to a tea-time buffet, next week to say thank you, and hello to us all .

Am going to go for a little while because I want to meet our new neighbours and it would seem churlish to me not to do so.
My immediate neighbour is not going because she says" it will take more than a sandwich to get round her"
Have told her that I think she is being a miserable old woman .Find her attitude rather a negative one and am surprised by this, but.the choice is hers .
I'll have her sandwich anyway !!!!!

I think you'll find there's more to it than ^that, jamesnan.
That'll just be the 'obvious' thing.
