I don’t know about you, but we have unwilling entered into a competition war with our neighbours. Who has the nicest car, which installed Sky first, who chose the window design first!

It is one of those situations where you NEVER say anything to each other but you both know what each are thinking.
I imagined this would happen when I retire and move further out into the country where I would only have one neighbour and a competition was inevitable.

However, now I live in the suburbs in a little estate and here I’m sure everyone is in competition with everyone. It almost feels like we have gone back to the 1950’s!

It’s even to the extent of who has managed to get the cheapest bargin! My missus is currently online trying to compare gas and electricity prices just so she can brag! Very worrying!
