More of a WWYD.
Neighbour around the back of my house (gardens back onto each other) just came round to ask if she could cut the branches off a big sycamore tree at the end of my garden.
Apparently it's covering her garden with something? I'm assuming it's the flowers which are quite sticky with sap. She has just built a dog kennel too and apparently it's ruining it?!
It's quite a big tree and I get where she is coming from but it's so beneficial for wildlife, I see so many birds in it and it must be a habitat for thousands of insects.
I kind of fumbled about how I'm into nature and wasn't too sure and then said I'd have to ask my landlord.
I could pribably agree to her giving the tree a trim but to cut all the branches off? No way.
I feel awkward about it all though because I don't want any hassle.
AIBU for just ignoring her until she asks again then saying no 😂 I don't know what to say to her.
