we live in terist house so have neighbours both sides both are elderly one couple is lovely and very polite and quite often talk to them on the other side is an old lady who is very nosey constantly commenting on my garden and my activities in general and also tells me about all the 'gossip' on the street (apart from my direct neighbours i don't know anyone in the street). she's also knocked in my door just to 'remind'me the postman didn't shut my gate and it looks wonky making the steet look untidy. so yes she's very annoy and a busy body... i get she's old an alone.
so in the nice weather we are re doing the garden and on her side there is a very old falling down fence so we told her will be putting up a new fence which she agreed. we went out and got some very nice and expensive panels with trelliss on the top so she can still see through an complain... we up it up and wow.... it was like world war 3 she said it was the most disgusting thing she's seen said it was too tall (same height as previous fence) she said she won't be able to sleep over it and felt sick.
the fence is on our side and 5ft tall do i just leave it? we told her wed be getting a fence and constantly have to put up with her complaining about my.garden anyway (i think its a very nice garden). am i being unreasonable to put my foot down and keep it up?
