Sorry to hear of Jim passing, I am the back neighbour for over 12years. I would visit and we would chat regularly over the fence. he always had veges from the garden hanging on the fence for me. I'm absolutely gutted.

Our deepest condolences to Russell and family for the loss of your dad. Your mum and dad were wonderful neighbours when we were growing up. A helping hand or veges out of your dads garden. Your dad even came over one time to help catch and dispatch a rat! When reminiscing about our childhood, my mum often spoke how they were great neighbours. Take care
Kind regards Nicola
