Characters At The Manor

Like all other buildings like this one, ther are characters, some great, some annoying.  One of the first is a man-eater who flirted with any guy in the room.  One day she sidled up to my guy, batted her big beautiful brown eyes at him and told him her apartment number.  I stepped between them, looked her in eye and said He is mine.  She backed off and informed me that men need variety.  I informed her that I do not share. 
There are only a few men in this building, but some of them are characters.  The ones who were friends would sit on a bench and gossip all day.  On check day, they would get their booze and then they were loud and obnoxious.  Two of them have passed away and are missed.
There is a woman who is bossy, religious, and cheap.  She has a car but she never asks anyone if they want to go out with her.  When we have an occasion that we bring some refreshments she does not.  When we charged admission she would never pay, but since the changes in our committee, she has to pay, so she stays home.  Let me say that she is not mean, she is very caring, but she is CHEAP!
That is all I can write for now but there are more.  Many more!

Next:  More characters
