I was walking my dog around my local streets last Sunday when I meet a new couple. They liked my dog but gave it a sandwich. I thanked them and had a happily chat with them. They said they had just been moved into this community. Unfortunate，they had a troublesome neighbour, that was rather noisy at night, making it hard for them to fall asleep. “Oh，it's great pity. I think I'm quite lucky to have kind neighbours,” I said.
Say our goodbyes, we separated. As my dog and I was near my home, I was embarrassed to see that my new friends were walking towards the house next to me. I was the noisy neighbour!
