I was looking up at our attic window from the front garden this week and remembered an experience I had about 3 years ago.
My husband and I were viewing a vacant property near Guildford with a view to buying it. On this occasion we were not able to access the inside of the cottage but that didn't stop us peering through all the windows and exploring the 100 foot garden.
My husband left the garden and when I turned to follow him I momentarily saw an old lady standing in an upstairs window, waving her arms as if shooing us away.
She did not look happy and I was secretly pleased that we didn't buy the house, especially since the house had been vacant for a while and there was no one living there.
