Well my fence paling replacement has held up for a solid week.
I was annoyed that the neighbours that moved in next door didn't offer to help or pay for it or take the ****ing bat out of the kids hand that broke it in the first place.
But so far it I'm pretty happy with my effort. And yet they are still bashing against it
From now on, any ball that lands over my fence won't be thrown back, it will be thrown out.
If they break it again and their dogs and/or kids go missing, not my fault.
If they damage my property otherwise, I will make them pay one way or another.
No more nice guy, they are taking the ****.
