Sympathies. A sad story all around.


But how tall where they Christina and honestly, did they block a lot of
light from the neighbours?

they were getting tall, tbh but they didn't keep out light.


Are you now more exposed to those neighbours and what will you replace the

Yes I am now more exposed, not only to my neighbours but to people walking

Maybe a wild hedge would encourage the birds as much? I
