Accepting deliveries is voted the top sign of being a decent neighbour

Are you a good neighbour?

I'm sure most people reckon they're a decent neighbour - right?

You're friendly, you don't have any mad parties keeping people awake and things like that.

But just how good a neighbour are you?

A list of top neighbour qualities has been compiled via OnePoll, commissioned by Warburtons.

And it pits 'accepts deliveries' as the number one sign of a decent neighbour.

The study of 2000 adults found that 77 per cent believe their street has some good neighbours.

While 92 per cent feel they are personally a great person to live next to.

Then again, doesn't everyone think they're great to live beside/with?

The study of UK residents found that one in five believe the pandemic helped bring them closer to their neighbours, and we'd imagine us Irish are the same.

Here's the top 30 'decent neighbour qualities':
