Mrs Bob says we need to expand more - in our double fronted 5-bed we've already done the loft, extended out to the side, added a conservatory and tanked the cellar, so I thought about enlarging our garden by buying our neighbour's adjacent back garden. I have asked them to sell it to us for ?10000, but they have said no. I don't know why because they don't use it much - they only seem to sit in it during the summer months and only cut their grass every 3 weeks or so. I know they need the money because I see them go out to work every day. I did think getting a compulsory purchase order, but my mate Mick down The Castle says I can't do that? Shall I up my offer to ?15k instead?
