    Wednesday: My neighbour spends all day putting 2' trellis panels on top of his fences - a total length of about 210'

    Thursday - and on, and on, and on .....: Spends all day up a step ladder trying to put preservative on it!

    :rotfl: :dh: :rotfl:

    Perhaps he is being a nosey neighbour. You think he is innocently sorting his fence, but really he is an undercover secret agent spying on you and your neighbours. Do any of your neighbours know a little bit too much about Russian politics and American geography by any chance?

    True - he is nosey, but he's also 82, a retired Actuary (you know - the sort of person who finds Accountancy too exciting) and my daughter does have a Politics degree but she's also the person who got lost on her way home from her driving test!

    As he was an Actuary it explains everything :rotfl:

    I have a few friends who were Actuaries and they are great fun (I enjoy watching paint dry :hehe:) but are not really part of this world. I think they come from Mars. They are absolute nutters with a great sense of humour.
