Well we have lived at my current address for the best part of 45 years, we call them by their first names, a few years back I was talking to G (next door) after getting home from work on Friday evening, his wife had dementia, Saturday morning he died of a brain aneurysm. His wife died shortly afterward.

The other next-door neighbours are in their 90s. I did have to enter their house during lockdown as she had a fall and I helped her sit on the floor and waited for their daughter to arrive (I used to watch the daughter sunbathing from my bathroom window.

There is a woman who was my sister's friend, she moved away, but she moved back a few doors along.

Then there is the woman who my mum used to go to school with, her husband died of cancer a month ago.

We do some social event for big occasions, and Christmas 2020 they organised a Christmas carol sing song with social distance, I opted out as it was the first Christmas without my mum and I had no Christmas spirit.
