Soks - you ok out there??
Having trouble with our nasty neighbours again, the ones who hurt Bertie, We came home yesterday to find they had leaned into our garden and chopped our hedge down by 3 ft, damaging our fence whilst doing it, and strewn our garden full of the debris, its a real mess
. We spoke and sent photos to the council (they are tenants), and the housing officer said it was a clear case of criminal damage, phone the police, the police said it was a civil matter, speak to the council, and we are left piggy in the middle with a huge mess to clear up and nothing can be done to stop it happening again
. We just don't want to go in the garden anymore.
Dreading going away as scared as to what we will come home to.
