You appear to be a fairly keen gardener so once you've taken all action
possible within the law............

Not cheap and involves relocating plants:

Move your prized specimens approx 2m away from the boundary so that (when
recovered) they will screen your house.
Use the area between these specimens and the boundary for the following
essentials:

storage of compost, manure, dead animals and anything else you can find that
smells (better if prevailing wind is towards your neighbour)
erection of wind generator (better if prevailing wind is away from your
neighbour)
old rusty scrap that is piled almost as high as your specimen trees
hanging of animal carcasses, because you are concerned about the diminishing
numbers of vultures worldwide


Shouldn't take long for your friends to become disenchanted with your
boundary!
