Yorky, in all fairness I do get on quite well with my neighbours and we do talk about any issues that may affect entente cordiale between us. Since moving in three years ago we have had a number of problems that needed to be resolved. Such as the sighting of overhanging satellite dishes (in my air space), dogs coming over the wall into my garden to do their business at night, loss of light through tall trees, falling leaves and, more recently, waterfalls from broken gutters. The only difference is that I am prepared to take action to resolve these problems whereas on the other side of the fence Thainess sets in and nothing happens fast. It would be nice to have cooperative and joint efforts to resolve these problems to everyone's mutual satisfaction. However, when this fails I am quite prepared to declare UDI and resolve these issues by myself and with an unilateral solution.
