Purely for venting purposes.
Not the neighbours/trees you are probably thinking (too large, won't cut them back) but the obsessed with cutting them down sort. Barely a tree or lawn left round here as it is as one after the other paves their drives for 4 cars, in recent weeks a beautiful focal tree has gone, one side is fixated on hacking their adjoining side back to dog's-hind-leg eye level (these are the ones with the plastic lawn, aka the ones who wore me into submission & into letting them trim one of my trees in half vertically, so yeah, worrying about wildlife & nesting birds not a priority there) - worst of all, end-of-garden lot have got a chainsaw wielding twit going to town right now on the only greenery that screens them off from me. Stuff that just gets to the attractive stage before they're at it again.
This is not high stuff or stuff that's shadowing their light. This is however the only stuff that stops my view being of them eating their dinner or washing their dishes.
Revenge suggestions? Nude appearances at window? Anti-brexit mural? Really nothing, is there. Powerlessness really, really sucks.
