As I'm sure I mentioned...we're replacing the fence at the back of our property (along the boundary with next door).
There're a few reasons why we are doing this. But mainly: the existing fence is in a state and rotting, we want some privacy from the holiday visitors (who enter next door property to the rear) and mainly because I won't go out at the back at the moment if the next door owners are there. If you have been following our Wales updates you will know that we don't have the best relationship with them. Since we moved in we have had countless 'disagreements'. So, of course, when I emailed them a week ago (out of courtesy) to let them know that we will be erecting a fence I was bound to get a negative response. It arrived this afternoon. Worded very politely. But the basis of their reply is... 'No. We don't want you to build a fence. It will create a corridor effect to our back door (which is our main entrance). It will create security issues. We would like the fence to be the same height and style as it is now. We will check planning. We suggest meeting at the end of the month. And we hope you have found lovely names for your Alpacas'. I am yet to pen my response...but I guess it will go something like:
And, if you know me well, you'll know that I won't write any of the bottom half of that list. Mainly because we have no right to say any of that. What they do in their property (within reason) is none of our business. But I can think it. In other news:
Anyway...I must do that plan. Today's photo...the beginnings of the fence (which is below the maximum 2m height).
