    Leylandai, what a nightmare

    Was listening to Jeremy vine discussing this earlier, can you imagine living in the semi attached to this??

    Eeek - that is awful isn't it. Sounds like a nightmare neighbour - agree with Hids, looks like he is out to annoy people as much as possible!

    He can't possibly have any light inside his house at all.

    was watching a sarah Beeney programme about tree roots under a house they can cause allsorts of damage to sewer pipes aswell as eventually making the building unsafe to live in,i think i would have to chop them down and suffer the consequences after!

    I think the bloke is probably mentally disturbed, he's being affected more than anyone. It's quite similar to those cases where people live in heaps of rubbish, isn't it. It reminds me of a bloke I knew of who'd been in a concentration camp and had surrounded his house with fences and barbed wire because it was the only way he felt safe. I've got some customers, neighbours, who loathe each other to the point of making themselves ill about it, it makes me shudder every time I've been in contact with them. Dreadful way to live.
