to position trampoline close to neighbour's boundary

[ihatebikerides]

We're about to have our garden re-vamped. After a year of shifting the blasted thing from A to B every time we mow the lawn (and it's heavy), as well as having manky grass underneath it, we've asked the landscaper to designate a barked area quite close to the back fence. A lot of the current bushes/screening will be removed and it will be a while before the new stuff grows, although there will be a nice new fence (6ft) there too.
Let's face it, with the netting up, its very ugly. But they wouldn't see it so much if they hadn't cut down all the trees on their side of the fence. Don't want to fall out with them, but equally don't want to spend a few hundred quid putting in mature screening along that boundary, as the designer has suggested. Neighbour doesn't know yet.
What do you reckon?

We have ours in a hole in the ground - no drumming sound at all - would definitely recommend it.

Suspect noise would depend on depth/width of hole?

Hmm! Oh dear. Many of you have confirmed my worst fears. I hear what you're all saying, and sort of agree, but the trampoline is a non-negotiable part of the plan (DH and DCs. And to be fair, they get such good exercise from it. Better than sitting indoors on the computer). Will have to re-think the screening issue, I think, as this area is pretty much the only place it can go in the new design. It's been there before on a rotating basis (2 weeks on, 4 weeks off as we try to give the lawn a rest) and they haven't said anything. But then, they didn't say anything to us when they cut down their screening so they can now look straight through to our bedroom in winter.
