Nice Neighbours

Having good neighbours means a lot to me. Maybe it's part of my upbringing where we had good neighbours when I was a child. It definitely means a lot to me to have good neighbours though and I like it to be reciprocal.

So when I brought the kids to our next door neighbours house for Halloween and Martin answered the door on crutches, I got a fright. I asked him what happened and he told me he had knee surgery, but recovery wasn't going all that well and the nerves hadn't taken properly yet.

I promised to keep him in my prayers, but that wasn't enough, so I decided to get him a get well soon card too. Then I decided I'd make him a Get Well soon hamper. I bought a lovely bottle of 2018 Rioja reserva, some of his favourite IPAs, some crisps, chocolates and other snacks as can be seen in the photos below.

He was really taken aback when he answered the door and saw me with the hamper. He couldn't believe it was for him!

It's the little things in life.
