New neighbours

Yesterday the English man who recently bought the property next to the Lovely House turned up in a battered camper van towing a trailer. I was out by our gate as he arrived and it seemed rude not to go over, say hello and suggest they come by and join us for a beer the following day. He is of retirement age, very overweight and has two boisterous young children. He also seems quite grumpy. There's a scared-looking wife but as she hid behind the van when I walked over I can't really say much about her yet.
