Strange old retired neighbor
Discussion
Evening chaps,
I live opposite an old couple. Lived here for 25 years etc and generally mean no harm but are busy bodys.
The chap is out there pruning his garden roughly quicker than it can grow, no harm no foul even if I don’t like his multi coloured light up rockery.
Anyway I’ve only lived here a few months and today I’ve come home to 2 branches of bush thrown in my garden. Theres nothing wrong with the bush, it might be a little bushier than he would like but we have a lot of birds nesting in it so I’m happy to leave it as it is.
CCTV tells me he has been out with another neighbour making aggressive gestures at my bush (no sound unfortunately) hehe
So i’m up for a little neighborhood love. Shall I tell him to get fked and don’t cut my bush? Go and cut some of his? Any other humorous suggestions on a postcard.
I see the 2 branches as a passive aggressive, this is what is going to happen type ransom note.

My bush infront of the estate car. His house is that opposite.
I own the strip of land down the side of the fence.
Presumably bush is/was overhanging the paved area that various other residents have right of access over - was it protruding any more than in the photo (e.g. would it be in the way of a car/van driving over the shared access?)https://mapstreetview.com/#unlgn_6oav_1l.a_-7f40

If its overhanging and in the way, I can understand why they would want this cut back but still common manners to just speak to you about it rather than cut it. Does CCTV show him cutting it?

One neighbour likes to do a little gardening, the other one likes to film them. 
Now which one is strange?
BTW this belongs in the correct thread in the lounge
If you stick your head over my fence and start chucking stuff in my garden you get filmed. Me, odd? Probably not.Now which one is strange?
