My cranky neighbour & the LCC

So in my last post, I talked about Friday evening dinner at my place but forgot to mention a funny incident that happened.

As some people might know, I have a rather cranky neighbour who keeps complaining that I'm making alot of noise. So while we were chatting after dinner, he promptly comes over to complain about the noise level. Once, Twice and finally THRICE!

In all honesty, we weren't making that much noise. Sure we burst into laughter occasionally, but with the door closed and windows shut, there couldn't be much noise escaping... However, Mr Cranky insisted that he couldn't sleep due to being woken up by our laughter. He then proceeded to say he can't stand how we make so much noise every night and that even the previous night we were making noise all the way to 4 am.

To set the record straight, we were home late on Thursday and after I had gotten home, I spent hours wrapping presents for YQ. Therefore we didn't have any guests over and we definitely didn't make any noise. He was making it up as he went along. So I got pissed off and told him it was Friday night and we weren't making all that much noise and it wasn't everyday that we had people over. He retaliated by insisting that this was a home and not a "Ju Le Bu" which basically means "Community Centre".

How close to home he hit! Guess its time for the LCC to either move to a new place or upgrade with airconditioning so we can shut the entire place up and still have cool air.

Anyways, Irene got up the next morning to go for IDAHO and promptly found a note on my door from Mr Cranky apologising for his tone the night before and letting me know he appreciated us moving from the living room to the kitchen. Ah well, maybe there is hope for him and the LCC after all!
