DREAM NEIGHBOURS

We all know about the nightmare ones, but here are five people we’d love to find ourselves next door to

THE BAKER

Got a hankering for artisan cinnamon rolls? Of course you do. Because this neighbour is always baking, then insisting you take the extras. The only time when licking a neighbour’s crockery is socially acceptable.

THE HOT DAD

He always holds the door for you but, mercifully, keeps chat short as he’s checking Rafferty doesn’t run into the road. Guaranteed to be good in a crisis and also has excellent taste in directional scarves.

THE EPIC PARTY-THROWER

They host the best bashes, with all the prosecco you can drink, and single-handedly add 100 followers to your Insta. The walls are also magically soundproof, should you want a night with Netflix instead.

THE FASHION JUNKIE

The designer cast-offs she passes on to you are worth significantly more than your monthly rent cheque – and you don’t even have to reduce yourself to rummaging through her bins in order to get them. Win!

THE RELIABLE ONE

When you’ve stumbled home from epic party-thrower’s do and dropped your keys in the punch, Ms Reliable’s there to let you in with a spare. She’s also saved you from a “Where’s the can opener?” situation more than once.
