PLANTS

I wanted to mention this, because I had alluded to a problem earlier.

We are really annoyed and pissed off with what's happening with our shed.  It has to be reduced in height to appease one neighbour.  A husband and wife.

Management here are doing it ... and shouldering the costs, as this fiasco was caused in part by us, and in part by them. 

I felt like moving here was a major mistake, and the happiness I was starting to feel about our new little home was gone.

But, as Stew has said to me, let's NOT let 'them' ruin the enjoyment we shall get from living here.  Lets NOT let them know in any way how much they have upset us.

We shall just totally ignore them, and get on with settling in here, and getting to know all the other lovely people who live here.

Now, the only thing I have to work out is where to put our Pig Weather Vane!  It can't be on the roof, or in anyone's 'face'.  So that's something I'd like to work on today.

We are also going out to find some new garden plants.

When we moved in, there were two areas in the garden that had been freshly planted with hedge plants.   I asked for them to be removed, and they did it immediately.   I am going to replace them with pretty shrubs of our choosing.

Later on this afternoon we have a lady coming to talk to us about our 'lives', for our Village Profiles.  I don't think telling her I'm a CRABBY TART will cut it somehow.  😂😉😏

Catch ya later.

'Smile and be NICE'???

ABOVE:  I'd much rather give them that face! 

btw:  I'm rather impressed with my "ugly" face!  lol

Stew just did the weekend shopping.  Next will be going out to nursery's to find some plants.

Before anyone else makes any helpful suggestions re: the shed, just know that most options were offered to the 'complainers', but short of removing the shed entirely, the only option was the one they agreed to.

Which was butchering our shed, and planting trees to shield it from their view, even though once it is butchered, it will not be in their sight much at all. 

We were kept informed for the most part in what was going on behind closed doors.  But we will still be asking to see the 'Rules and Regulations' that were enacted, as we have not been shown anything in writing to back up what is happening to our shed.  Which is basically being done against our wishes.

Just now, Stew's out the front, getting plants out of the car, and THEY drive past.  And that fucking bitch waved at Stew.  He waved back.  I wouldn't have.

ABOVE: And we have 8 new plants in the gardens, and they should look lovely in a couple of  years time.

Had a lovely yak with L and D, the neighbours whose home joins onto ours.  Lovely people, so nice to have them next door.

We are now going out for a kebab, then home in time for the meeting with the lady who is doing our village profiles.  I might even smile for that photo, cos the one above is not quite 'friendly'.  lol
