Proper fed up neighbors Sky dish. – Page 2 – Chat Forum

Right fathers day is getting off to a great start with a massive row. Our house is in a row of staggered houses. In the corner of our house is a tree/shrub it's always been there and it doesn't overhang the neighbors property. However a few years back the neighbors put up a sky dish, not on the front of their house, but on the staggered wall and overhanging our garden. But best of all right above our tree? So the tree has grown as they do and now blocks their dish...no picture. I say it's their problem, and should move it to the front of their house. Or pay to get my tree trimmed, I've tried but can't manage it myself. My wife is having a right go at me, saying I should have kept the tree trimmed. I think they are retards mounting the dish behind a tree and overhanging our garden. STW court of law views please.

Offer to help them move it (time not money)

Actually why not offer to contribute to the cost? Yes, you shouldn't really need to but that way you don't have to deal with the tree and you keep your neighbours happy which as we've seen from previous threads is worth it.

Edit: having just seen oldgits new post I might be a bit unhappy as well

How well do you get on with your neighbour? If you get on well, it's not worth falling out over such a small problem, trim the tree together and move the dish so no problem in future.
If you don't, leave it and have a chuckle when he has a pull.

It's become standard practice over the last few decades to keep your bush well trimmed.

Pretty sure it's native to the UK?
