My Neighbour came by with a thoughtful treat for us last month. They are cookies of some kind, not too sweet tasting. He had just returned from a trip to China and brought them over. He asked if his father could trim some branches from our backyard tree that were providing a bit too much shade on their garden. It was certainly ok with us.
His father is very agile, he hopped on a fence and stood atop his garden shed and proceeded to chop off the offending branches. He is obviously much younger than me and husband M although he has grown children and grandchildren.

Thoughtful treats, neighbourly cooperation, and impressive agility from someone clearly young at heart
That's a nice gesture.
How nice. Great, he could get those branches clipped. We had to have some major company come in and work on ours in the back yard.
I'm glad the branch cutting worked out for everyone. And I wonder what these cookies are.
I can feel a warm wind in my heart.
Erika they are barely sweet but count as a sweet treat.
That was nice of the neighbor, and he also removed the branches! People are often mistaken about age. I also estimated my new neighbors to be older.
That's a sweet gift, indeed, Christine. I can't imagine being that spry anymore like your older neighbor. Wow!
They looks good and I might like them if they aren't too sweet either. That was good of the guy too cut the branches too :-D Good neighbours are priceless :-D
That was very thoughtful.
Nice gift for sure.
That was nice, a kind gesture.
All the best Jan
He's impressive! There's no way either of us would try that.
They sound like great neighbors!
A sweet gift! Very nice of your neighbor to trim the branches. No way either of us could do that.
Eat those cookies!!!! Send some over? They seem to work wonders?
