True life story Keeping up with the Coopers
Semi-detached
Chris Austin talks about his neighbour nightman
Our family used to have quite a good relationship with the Coopers next door. But the real problems with our neighbours started when they changed their front door. Mr Cooper said it was the most elegant front door in the street. Well, Mum was really angry that our door wasn’t as elegant as theirs, so we bought a new one too. Then Dad painted the house and he boasted that the Coopers’ wasn’t as attractive as ours. So Mr Cooper painted his house too and at the same time he fitted more expensive windows. After that things just got worse and worse! Mum was always complaining that our house wasn’t big enough, so Dad finally built an extra bedroom in the attic – and so did the Coopers. The Coopers also bought a better car (the largest Range Rover on the market!) and built a garage for it. Dad wasn’t pleased that our car was older than theirs. The craziest thing happened two years ago. The Coopers bought a statue for the garden. Dad wasn’t pleased that the Coopers’ garden was prettier than ours, so he bought an enormous fountain. This was too much for the Coopers – they finally moved to a larger house. It’s a pity because their daughter was really nice.
