I offered to buy my neighbour’s garden as I could do with a bigger garden. They’d still have some patio left. I offered a reasonable large wad of cash (in a good quality envelope) and a contract of sale printed on yellow legal paper from the Post Office but they’re not interested.

Maybe consider a stealth operation?  Move your boundary a few cm every few months and hopefully they won't notice.  

They sound unreasonable in any case as your need us no doubt greater.

Alternatively if they like cards and a flutter on the gee gees you could have a game of poker, start with pennies and if it is going well up the staked.  Risky and may backfire which is how I came to live in a caravan, with only the clothes that Iwas wearing. But I would have regretted not going for it.

£30k in cash. All above board. My friend, Mick, from The Castle, who lives near a solicitor’s office drew up the contract (on a yellow legal pad) so it’s all bona fide. 

Is that Mick the Fin , Mousey Mick or Mick the taker ? 

Was the yellow legal pad from the well known solicitors postit and notes ?

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
