Ah I see what you mean now. You didn't do A specific thread, you did two. My bad

Ah...my bad...I'd forgotten about that and thought it boiled down to comments I'd made generally.
With age cometh....:cool::o - oh whoops...it better hadn't or I'll be "telling off" my brain big time:rotfl:
By and large - I've been able to put this all to the back of my mind and just Get On With My Life (as per original plan) now. They still glare daggers at me if they have the chance and I say nowt/smile confidently back at them in response - but they say nowt/I say nowt = end of and resolved. They were trying to psych me into "fitting in/doing things their way". It didn't work. Full stop. I'm doing things the normal way = end of.
Anyway - thankfully - it's all "past history" now at last. Whew!0 -
Going to court is always a gamble, I am in a position where I asked my neighbour to do his own survey wince he refused to acknowledge the result of my survey.
He had till 5th of December to complete his own which he never did what should I do now ?
Put my own fence back up ?
Or go court ?
If I start doing work outside he will come and challenge me again then what am I going to do ? I will tel him I bought the house with the boundary in that location he will just come back and say the boundary is wrong and should match the ordnance survey map, I will then go to land registry and they will say the boundary marking on the title plan are not accurate then I will be going round in a circle.
May be it will be cheaper for me to put my boundary back up again but he may refuse. So just to put an end to all this I will have to go through court proceedings.
PUT YOUR FENCE BACK UP!!
Neighbour won't like it of course - tough! If he comes out and starts arguing just remind he he had the opportunity to get a survey done and didn't bother, YOUR survey shows you are in the right and he knows it! Stand up to him!
I have a neighbour who wanted to pinch a bit of my land, I put the fence where I knew the boundary was, but told him I'd move it once he'd proved it was wrong. That was a couple of year ago, the fence remains where I put it and he's not mentioned it since.0 -
Hi all,
Nothing has really happened for a while just have his cordon up and nothing else, I advised him to get his own survey to compare with mine but he chose not to.
All that is left is for me to begin court proceedings, this is something I am not keen on starting however I also do not want to lose that pivotal piece of land either. So I was thinking of trying to talk some sense into him by being nice but firm, bottom line is He got what he paid for and I got what I paid for, He can't come after 8 years and claim the boundary is in the wrong place according to his plan. I will try and put this in a nice way to him and see how he reacts.0
