Well, I think I have just experienced the start of some form of reconciliation from the lady neigbour next door.
I was in the end of my driveway waiting to pull out onto what is quite a busy road with a long stream of traffic passing when a car stopped and flashed me to pull out. It was my neighbour. I waved to thank her & she waved back with a big smile !
Her husband however, can go and whistle as far as I'm concerned. He was out in his front garden Sunday in and out of his car - while I was up a scaffold adjacent painting my front bedroom bay window. I didn't even bother acknowledging the fact he was there.
Her, I will talk to - the hubby - no chance. Of the pair, she is the voice of common sense and reason.
The hubby is your typical, arrogant muslim male I'm afraid. Talks down to everyone, no respect for women ( demands his tea be on the table for the minute he walks through the door from work - imagine that ladies - if you had 2 small kids to deal with!!). To cap it all he holds anti-western views which I find disturbing for a guy who is a medical doctor working for our NHS. For example, he considers it is a small price to pay for a few western captives to have their throats cut for the activities of our troops in muslim lands and agrees with women being stoned to death. The chances of me ever seeing eye to eye with this guy are absolute zero.
