"pat Chlebowski" wrote in message ... How is the wall problem coming???? Last week they employed someone to rebuild the original wooden fence in the proper position between our houses. It does leave a bit of their wall (at the back of their property) poking out into my garden by a foot or so but whether it is worth me spending a lot of money on lawyers to force them to take it down back to what think is my boundary and they dispute I haven't decided yet. I think they gave up. They really did think they could get the better of me as they moved in next door when I had a broken leg. They saw me as disabled and an easy target. They had bad luck there.. I might put a trellis on the end of their wall and grow a climbing rose up it. Tweed |

I might put a trellis on the end of their wall and grow a climbing rose up it. Oh, I would. Or even better, plant ivy and train it to go over the wall to their side. It will eventually tear the wall down by itself...granted, it takes TIME, but meanwhile, it looks pretty! Deborah tried to take pictures of Miss CCK in way cute upside-downy head position on my desk, but they all came out blurry. And would she stay there for more pictures? no, of course not. |

Of course not..I do like upsidedowny head pics though. I'm not too bothered about one foot of wall now as I have a very big garden and they have a small one. They've given up the idea of insisting that I let them built a 6 ft 6 wall in front of my window. Tweed 1, neighbours 0. Result! I knew I could face them out. It shocked them when their plan of blocking my car in didn't work and I got my own drop kerb. It cost me more money than I wanted but it was so worth it. It's such a pity because I normally get on well with my neighbours. No chance of that with them. I had such lovely neighbours there before. Tweed |

She was just mentioning that her spelling is American. Nobody thinks you're "doin' it wrong." Also, she was just reminding you that you have already beat these neighbors before when you installed your own dropped curb, so the score should be 2 to 0! -- Joyce I want freedom, the right to self expression, everyone's right to beautiful radiant things. -- Emma Goldman |

As they cannot see the end of their wall now, I might just tap it with a hammer occasionally over a period of time to get it out of my garden. While they are at work. They won't notice it slowly disappearing, they can't see it now. Sometimes it takes some time to get what you want. I was tempted towards litigation, but softly softly catchee monkey. |
