Chatting With a Neighbour
Two minutes in the hallway.
- Them
Morning. Settling in all right?
- You
Yes, thank you. We moved in last week.
- Them
How are you finding the building?
- You
Very quiet, which we really appreciate.
- Them
It usually is. The rubbish goes out on Tuesdays.
- You
Good to know. Is there a code for the gate?
- Them
There is. I'll write it down for you.
- You
That's very helpful, thank you.
