The Wall, This is the end of it
"Christina Websell" wrote in
: I have taken legal advice from two solicitors who specialise in boundary disputes (which is what this is.) They have both said that while they are prepared to act for me, they advise against it because a boundary dispute can gallop away into so many legal fees through pride that you can lose your house through funding it. So, reluctantly, I've decided to let it go with a bit of their wall projecting into my garden. As I said, I will grow a climber up it. I have a burning resentment about it and the likelihood that we we ever be friends is zero in a million years. It's so stupid of them. We could so easily have been friends without "let me build a 6 ft 6inch brick wall in front of your kitchen window" They should have accepted NO without ther blackmail of keeping my car in by blocking it with theirs. Anyway, too late. We hate each other now. There is no chance of reconciliation, it's gone too far. The Wall at the end of their garden will remain but the chance of extending it at right angles all the way to the road blocking my light out is less than zero. They can't do it unless I agree because they have to come on to my property to do it and I don't want it so I said no. They will have to get used to it. I don't care if they attack my trees or not. The answer is NO! I respect the solicitors for their advice, they could easily have made me spend more money than I could afford on this for their own advantage but they didn't. They told me clearly how much a boundary dispute can cost if both won't back down. Tweed Now plant something with big thorns! Bobble |

Whatever you plant, choose something that produces a substantial root-system, and be sure it's close enough so the roots will sabotage their wall! |
