Quirky Things About the Place in Which I Live
Okay, so I thought it would be fun (yes, I'm bored) if we were to write about some of the more quirky things associated with the places - buildings, towns, whatever - in which we live.
I'll start.
W/we live in a 300 year old cottage in a small town in Sussex, England. When W/we moved in, O/our landlady warned us that once a month, the members of some kind of society - similar to the Freemasons but not the Freemasons - meet in the building that runs above O/our summer house (photo in gallery) and, amongst other things, 'dance around'. She was right, and several months later, W/we've become used to hearing them prancing and stomping all over the place.
The other night, however, during one of their regular meetings, B. and I went out to the yard for a cigarette and suddenly, W/we hear the sound of bagpipes coming from above. Not only do W/we hear bagpipes, W/we hear loud - very loud - bagpipes...and continue to do so for the next couple of - very, very long - hours. Interesting. Yes. Entertaining. Uh, no.
So...let the quirkiness begin.
