Now to the Neighbourly Note:
We were away on Gabriola Island for Thanksgiving visiting good friends of ours. It was nice to get away, and as a previous Islander (not quite official but six years is more than just a taste) and being married to an official Islander, it was great. We came home late on Monday night and found this note on our doorstep:
THANKS FOR WAKING ME UP AGAIN THIS MORNING. I'M NOT SURE WHICH PROJECT YOU'RE WORKING ON THAT REQUIRES BANGING BEFORE THE SUN COMES UP!!!!! (Extra exclamation marks added by me) A LITTLE CONSIDERATION OF YOUR NEIGHBOURS WOULD BE NICE.
PLEASE FIND ATTACHED THE CITY OF BURNABY BYLAWS WHICH OUTLINE WHENWE GET A BREAK FROM THE NOISE. THIS INCLUDES SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS LIKE TODAY. PLEASE READ THEM.
THANKS, YOUR NEIGHBOURS.
Well this is kind of funny because we weren't even home and we brought our alarm clocks with us... so to solve the mystery the note writer left the "Neighbours" part a little vague. I especially loved the By-Laws bit, because we were in Gabriola eating Crab Chowder while our "Neigbour" was being irritated by some kind of loud banging. The mystery remains, but the note was even circulated amongst the staff at my school who all got a chuckle out of it. What else can you do folks? Moral of the tale, if complaining, leaving your name is a good idea? He he he
