I dunno, we've recently moved from a city to a very small town, and am not entirely sure about bush trimming etiquette. We have brambles in the yard (which is great, free blackberries) and they also give us a bit of privacy from the little road behind. (Pic on profile.) So imagine my shock when I looked out of the window at lunchtime to see an old lady's face peering over, brandishing secateurs having lopped off half of them?!
I guess maybe she thinks she's doing us a nice favour by chopping them off, but seems like an odd thing to just get stuck in and do? And there's now a big bald spot where people can see in again. I'm fairly laid back about the state of the yard (as we've hardly been around over the summer and haven't massively done anything to it) but I feel a bit odd about this woman just taking it upon herself to hack bits off. AIBU?

to think this woman should not be chopping bits off our hedge?
