Hey, @grindan πΈ So nice to see you π
I'm thrilled that you found that memory soothing. It makes my day!
About your question, well, actually, there were several neighbors and people in the city, in general, who used to stand on their porches and even on the sidewalks on the threshold of their doors just to see what the neighbors were doing, what time they were leaving or getting home, who was entering whose house--and how late ππ--, etc... Miss Marple would've fit in here so well and solved a lot of mysteries, hehe. Even now there are still people who sit at the door of their houses just to contemplate "the street," but they are only a few now because the years of insecurity (due to all kinds of crime) almost got to eradicate this custom. I'm with you, I prefer looking at the clouds and trees, feeling the breeze... But it has it's pros and cons, you know; for example, when there's no one watching, the job of burglars is easier.
Thank you so much for dropping by β I really appreciated π
