Anyone got any stories of the above? I am fascinated whenever I see a good neighbour dispute over inches of land. Anyone here got stories about seemingly trivial disagreements or slights that have then blossomed into years of anger and hatred?

My mate's next door neighbour built an extension with a window where my mate didn't like it. After some disputes he waited until they were away. He had a 40 foot Leylandii craned in over his house and planted it abutting their window.

Can't recall how it all panned out, but gave us a proper hoot.
