Aaahhhhhh! Neighbour [ the one we hate and with the problem step son ] has just been round complaining about one of my Beech trees. He says one of the branches is obstructing the drive. The said branch is more than 30 feet above the drive. It is a seriously beautiful tree, there are records of it being there in the mid 1800's. As usual we ended up arguing and I walked off before things got worse, I am now really short of breath, hopefully just stress. Why does he have to behave like this?
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Hosta, I would love to see that ballet performance.
I said to Hubby," you do realise the audience will almost entirely be made up of homosexual men and "ladies of a certain age". I'll let you know on Thursday.

because he's a twot! and , dare I say? , he knows it'll wind you up? You have my sympathy, but try to stay calm. Easy for me to say. Maybe a wee glass of something is called for?
Enjoyed it when it was on TV a while ago - years now I expect. It's a great concept.
Pdoc - he clearly has no joy in his life. Talk to him about tree preservation orders or send Moira round if she's scarier/more patient than you but I'm afraid he just sounds utterly unreasonable. I take it you have already informed the police/appropriate council department about his unneighbourly activities. Did you get the CCTV pointed towards your shared boundary in case he gets up to his tricks?

Because he's an ar**hole doc. Or as we're now adopting - a twut/twot/twet. Don't let him get to you. What does he drive anyway - a cherry picker? Dove - that's where I've gone wrong. I picked football enthusiasts and not yard swillers I hung washing out and the rain came on. Bl**dy, bu**ery , b***ocks. I'll give it five minutes.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Nicely put FG. The sun's out here and the WM is just entering it's spin cycle. It's a race to the line and the tension is unbearable! I have an overhanging beech branch and my neighbours' concern is that it'll come down and crown somebody. It seems to be doing it in instalments so far. I really need to take some weight out of it.
S'gone off again here ppauper. I might be able to get on with my lifting, dividing and wood sawing. Don't fancy using the jigsaw when it's peeing down... Could you sling a rope up and round it, and hoik it, or is that a bridge [or branch] too far?
