"Hello, sister-in-law, we moved here today." Bonnie didn't know who this was, but as the saying goes, it's better to be close to your neighbor than to be distant, so it's still very necessary to build a good relationship, unless you're like a little hen, in which case you'd have to build a wall half a meter higher.
