I used to have nice neighbours a few years ago both sides. Now I don't.
It's a sad situation. The other side, we fell about trees. They
insisted I took some down so they could put a fence up so I did it as I
was fed up with the woman knocking on my door and banging on my window.
So she's put up a reed fence. BTW, she is selling her house and wants me
to get rid of my trailer that I get my wood delivered into because it
ruins the kerb appeal. Bad luck on that, eh?

Lets hope that when she does move, you get some really nice neighbours.

It's sad when things go wrong with neighbours.

Hopefully Tweed will get some new, reasonable neighbors! For the most
part I've always had nice neighbors. Except the one woman who rented the
house next door who refused to walk her dog on a leash. She let it poo in
my yard instead. I left a note in her box asking her to conform with the
leash laws. She rang the doorbell one night, *with* her unleashed dog and
started yelling at me, calling me a liar. Fortunately, she moved a month
later. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

I've been lucky with neighbors most of the time. I haven't had too many to
deal with, because I live on a corner and have lived in the same house for
44 years. We did have some unpleasant neighbors for a few years ago, but
they're long gone. I think the unpleasantness started when they decided to
put a decorative block wall between their front yard and ours, and wanted us
to pay half. We refused. After that, her son (about 12 years old) started
making obscene phone calls to us, and she complained if we parked our car on
"her" side of our driveway. That made about half the car in front of her
property. She actually came and asked me to move the car one day when we
were getting ready to go to my grandmother's funeral.

My current next-door neighbors are sweethearts. When we had a big
earthquake several years ago, they came over to make sure I was okay.
They're the ones who take care of my cats when I go away.
