Well I think I would be inclined to sort of bump into them if that is possible.

That's how I have dealt with new neighbours. Mind you I'm not very good with small talk and hate bothering people so really I'm the last person to give advise. I should ignore this post if I were you grin

I've moved quiet a lot over the past few years. I always think it's my place to go and introduce myself.

As many of you will know we have just moved into a bungalow. There are two other bungalows, one on either side of us, but both well hidden behind greenery. Neither side has been round to say hello - I think they have both been away in fact. One side seem to have returned - they own the field behind us, so we will see them when they tend the trees there. I am not sure whether to take the bull by the horns and go round and say hello, or whether to wait on them visiting. I definitely do not want to get off on the wrong foot as our septic tank is on his land and we need access if we ever need to drain it. The previous owner had assured us that both sets of neighbours were nice.

I go for a walk every day and have bumped into several people who have introduced themselves. And we know two couples very well - but both are on holiday at the moment.

What do others think?
