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 ?

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.
    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
